Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Well....

I've heard some older models like that which sounded *good*, but if you're saying they are *that* good, I think you're dreaming a bit. A 2" paper tweeter *sucks* compared to a good metal tweeter from today. NOW, on the other hand, the design is sound and if it's a sealed design, you're going to hear stuff from an *old* sealed design that you won't hear from a *new* ported speaker. The thing is, you've been listening to upper mass market speakers, not actual high-end speakers, so if you go do more listening, you'll find speakers that blow away the old ESS speakers, but you're just not looking in the right places.

Though, I do know what you mean by the word "lemming". I use it a lot.
