Dear Badger,No-one says the Voecks designs sucked, all we contend is that they are not as good as the originals they replaced.
I believe this is pretty easy to demonstrate.
I don' know how familiar you are with Peter Snell's work, but I can guarantee you that nothing he would have made would have been anything like anything made now or before, but the product of possibly the greatest mind that has worked acoustics since N. W. McLachlan and Harry Ohlsson.
If you are familiar with the highly unconventional theory and design behind the Snell Type 1 you will recognise the truth in this.
Sincerely,
Peter Qvortrup
