RE: What Ever Happened To Phase Coherent Time Aligned Speakers

"Those are a different category and can only be achieved using first-order analog acoustic crossovers, and/or DSP solutions, and then only at a single point in the measuring space."

While that is true for hifi loudspeakers, the ones in the link are a newish horn invention (pat pending)used in larger scale sound , they can reproduce a square wave, over a broad band and not just in one location and they have higher order passive crossovers. While they are horn speakers, there is no trace of horn sound.
Not only that but the speakers have no self interference and as a result they only have one radiation lobe and not a pattern of lobes and nulls in the polar patterns.
They measure and act as if they only had one wide band driver.

Here is a big giant one you can listen to with headphones;
