We talked about it most recently with Helmholtz and his RD50 driver vs. Neo8 array, and referred back to the discussion of segmented drivers we had with Doug Schroeder after his review of the kingsound king with its segmented tweeters and woofers.
The kazoo effect is much reduced - if not eliminated - by segmenting the drivers so that longitudonal resonances on the mylar/kaladex are at a higher freq than the operational range of the driver. The speed of sound in mylar is far higher than in air, so the distortion is only heard on long drivers. It is an extra brightness with a rough texture to it. Suposedly it is better on the 3.7i than it was on the 3.7, which is reported by many to have less of it than prior models. Probably caused by the better damping of the QR vs. wire.
