Transmission line speakers!

@oldhvymec , I used to have a pair of those WTLC's.....long ago, far away...

The only objection, which took awhile to comprehend as to Why. was the Walsh supertweet on top, often referred to as the 'ice cream cone'...

Having corresponded with the one who worked on the prototypes literally on the kitchen table when @ Infinity, they were a bit of a lark.  Inf. had an agreement with Ohm of that era to use the concept...

My biggest observation/objection is the the cone is upside down; given the height, the Walsh only came into play when you sat on the floor about 6~8' away.  And, even then, the top corners of the TL cabinet appeared to 'get in the way'....

'Space and spacing finicky', and could have used a sub.  An active xover and tri-amping  as well, not practical at the time.

Pleasant until 'pushed', then over it's head so to speak. Replaced w/ESS AMT 1B's.

One of the reasons I play with Walsh drivers, tho'....with a somewhat different approach.... ;)

Thanks for the memory lane pic....*S*

Happy Post-New Year to you 'n all y'all...

*sigh* "It's the end of the 'bot jokes as we knew them, and I feel defined..." *L*

...at least the veneer on that pair is just as bland as what was on my pair....

Arnie liked being 'cutting edge', but apparently had issues over spending for it...

"All of My 'ports' are fixed....and a good thing, too...." *L* ;)

Spouse claims I talk out of my 'stern' port, but I point out it's kinda' 'one note'...

...to which, "Precisely!" is the refrain.....;)

Your results likely vary, to some degree....

Real drag for us refried fans...having to stay downwind to download, degauss, denigrate the local atmosphere....not to mention the potential of cheek chunks...

(I know... "Too much information, runnin’ through my head..." Thanks, Sting....*G*)

*sigh* 6’o1, half dozen of the other.... ;)

@reubent , never heard or heard of the Clements RT7’s. but a quick drill-about brought up a look@.....👍 Taller ribbon versions of that sort seem to present a nice stage, I’ve a smaller bookshelf pair that mate nicely with the home flat screen. Part of a small Philips set bought to ’fill in the blank’ awhile back.

One CN vendor (NewformResearch.com) has tweaked my interest with theirs, but never pulled the itchy trigger of mine to try. Never read any comments here, but would expect the HF drivers to respond nicely. That, and not being a dipole would be an attraction for the room(s) not suited for such.... If any have any thoughts upon, would be of interest perhaps...

Seems to be TL cabs beneath, but could be wrong.....*horrors* Me, Wrong?!

Yeah, weakly....*L*
