RGA, I'd like to see an AN single driver as well. Does anyone know if this is something that's been considered?
The basic charachter of Lowthers and other single-drivers (I own Cain/Fostex and Omega/hemp) is quite different from most multi-ways and AN E's. Since the rest of the line (K & J) sound similar to the E, I'd think that going a totally different direction sonically with a single-driver wouldn't fit the AN plan. But, I'd sure like to hear them if they were to make them!
I've got a pair of the hemp Omega XRS in my office system. They're made in Connecticut by a gent named Louis Chochos, owner of Omega. No connection with AN that I am aware of. The cabinet is substantially smaller than the AN E, probably about 1/2 the volume. The XRS driver is only 4" vs the E's 8". The XRS is beautifully finished, btw, although for $950 it's obviously not finished to the same standards you'd expect from the pricier E's.
