In Reply to: REVIEW: Rauna Tyr Speakers posted by jonbee on July 30, 2012 at 11:35:31:
I've done a bit more checking on these. The original Tyr, which this review is about, used the Seas CA 17RCY paper cone woofer- a great driver that the Wilson Watt used before the 5. The crossovers were a series design (I have read the Wilsons were also).
The Tyr II went to a polypro cone, which according to the designer was a step backward. All of this, the ERO caps and the concrete cabinets were chosen to maximize dynamics. They got it very right. If you can find a pair, get them!
