Obscure companies making excellent speakers?


Found on the forum names of speaker manufacturers unfamiliar to me that supposedly are using new technologies or designs and as a result are making big impressions on fellow goners. Would like to see a list of these young and not so young companies that otherwise fly under the radar because advertisement just too expensive or not viable.

I've recently taken in Lansche to our stable of distributed brands, so I'm in complete agreement with you but hope that efforts here will help them fly right into the radar!

On the issue of the Corona tweeter: The 8mm plasma ball in the Lansche system is twice as big as that employed by Acapella, lending it the ability to perform at an octave lower - as you noticed. What most folks don't know is that the Lansche Corona also performs out to 150kHz - the only tweeter I know of that can do this. From what I gather, Acapella's Corona HF limit is 40kHz.

I'm not sure how this translates to what humans can hear, but I suspect that it may help with the rise time of HF transients.

As a package - due to the active bass as well as the plasma tweeter - the Lansche 4.1 system rolls in with the most impressive specs I've ever seen for a loudspeaker system: 20Hz-150kHz @ 99dB sensitivity, able to sustain 115dB.
