Peter Moncreif will be surprised to find out his hand-peeled foil caps trimmed to the 4th decimal (1/2000th of one percent) are in need of upgrading. BTW, the caps were just released about two months ago, so afraid you are a little behind the curve. I'll take another bet while we're at it: the RM40 will outlive anything currently made by VS, by a wide margin. To use your language, you "can not possibly" be taken seriously if you believe anything except a larger VMPS Neo can beat the current RM40 TRT. The larger ribbons models are not nearly as developed as the 40, hence they are uncerachievers, while the 40 simply rules the high-end world right now. VMPSs propritary neodymium ribbon technology is turning the high-end speaker world upside down. I predict there won't be a high-end cone-mid speaker left within ten years. It won't matter when Wilson, B&W & VS convert to ribbons, as they are gonna cost at least 4-10 times what VMPS will be charging, probably for less performance.
