RE: What is the purpose of the rear wave in dipole speakers? Can you just put planars in a box?

For frequencies above circa 150 Hz you can have planars drivers in a box. The cavity need to be carefully damped though. The best exemple I know of were made by SAC in Germany using Fostex planar drivers, http://www.sac.de/sac/start_frame.php?Pfad=140_143&BL=3

Quad ESL-57 is using damping behind their drivers, bass will still pass but higher frequencies will not.
