The majority of the discussion was understanding the wording he used (gradient being a key word), and if the design is or isn't a true dipole. Some may have questioned the wording for sure, but I don't see anything intentionally misleading. Bruce seems like a solid guy.

it's a life or death matter! ;)
No, certainly not life or death. That's just silly rhetoric. But just what I expect from you.
It's an interesting design, but I think it's important to drill down through the marketing-speak and use language that's accurate and clear.
The audiophile world has become full of self deception and intellectual dishonesty.

Davey, if implemented correctly how much of a improvement do you think the new woofer would be? Or is that too much mental gymnastics, as in who knows?
I dunno. I don't see much point in this configuration. If wanting to implement a dipole woofer, why not just build a dipole woofer? :)
You wouldn't need a box(es)....you could use a single driver....etc, etc.This is a complicated way to generate a "directional" woofer system that may or may not work well in a variety of setups. Dipole woofers might have a similar issue, but they're much simpler in concept and implementation.
I think this is probably an improvement over the old LFT-8 woofer system, which has a couple of significant issues.
Dave.
