...as the old saw goes.
Really. Dipole bass excites the room in different ways than you're used to. It also inherently has a smoother rolloff than infinite baffle or ported speakers. These conspire to make the experience very different, and to me, very *good* in a way that I hadn't expected.
This is true even for zero-baffle loudspeakers, which take the front/back cancelation to the extreme; or, phrased differently, start rolloff at a higher frequency. Despite this, they can sound quite amazing.
If you're in the Boston area you're very welcome to stop by for a listen to my system (http://cabezal.com/pix/ob/).
