I have Tonian Classic 12's. I can assure you that the speaker does not turn the music to sonic mud when playing rock or orchestral works. You might not like the sound of PHY based speakers but it would not be because of its lack of detail or coherence. I consider these traits one of its strong points.
Thin Walled Speakers -Tonian, Musical Affairs, etc
Hello,
It seems that a few speaker makers are using the thin walled, lightweight, less damping approach to building. For example Tonian, Musical Affairs and some others.

And I've read some very positive reviews of such speakers. I can see how they would sound unreal with vocals, acoustic instruments etc. But how do they sound with other more spectrally complex music- lets say rock. Do they turn to sonic mud?
I'd be curious to hear feedback from anyone who actually owns or has heard such speakers.
Thanks
