Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: excuse the odd question - why buy controversial speakers?

What is whacky? No one has yet provided an example of this.

My Audio Note speakers might be considered whacky or controversial - yet they were designed by arguably one of the top 5 acousticians who ever walked the earth in L.L. Beranek and then improved upon by Peter Snell - put Snell on the map.

But most manufacturers in this industry consider them "wrong." Which speaker volumes about the "most manufacturers" IMO and IME.

I can sell my speakers for more than I originally paid for them 5 years ago - try that with a mainstream speaker from the big boys that change designs every 3 years to improve their market share.
