>The benefits of the design are unparalleled neutrality, uncolored sound,moderate efficiency, and powerful extended low frequency support.Umm, being kinda generous here. It is not a given that TL's will give neutrality or uncolored sound. IMO a good number of TL's are very colored and sorta bloated in their response. Some models of Meadowlark are just those examples.
Also there is something refered to as a terminated transmission line that has no exit or port, its purpose is to reduce the backwave transmission and have the same effect as "open TL's" on the impedance response. This approach is also used by some on tweeters also.
But the general jist of what you say is very much the purpose of a TL and excellent advice to mikem. It is not a buzzword.
Only mikem can tell, but would guess that change from VR 4's to Meadowlark Heron's would be a laterial move not a real upgrade.
