Transmission line speakers!


Hi group,

I just pulled the trigger on a mint pair of Falcon speakers. They are a transmission line design. I don’t see many speakers using transmission line. Does anyone here have any experience pro or con with this type of design? BTW, I have always liked sealed type speakers over ported speakers!

Thanks much!

I’m still using a pair of KEF Transmission Lines that my late father and I built in the mid ’70s.

They are made of 1’’ ply and are a CJ Rogers design with a KEF B139 bass, KEF B110 mid, KEF T27 tweeter and an ITT-STC 4001G Super tweeter.

They sound really nice with any amp but could probably do with a crossover rebuild. And a refinish as the original glued laminate hasn’t aged well and has been removed.

I have tried to include a picture but it won’t stick for some reason.
