George, The Alexia is way-more speaker than I need. I'm thinking about some used Sashas partnered with the new D'Agostino Classic stereo amp and an Audio Research Ref 5SE. Can't see needing more than this in my Golden Years...
Any Large Acoustic Suspension Speakers Being Made?
I auditioned some Dunlavy SC-IVAs in the 90s. The sound was unlike anything I've heard before or since.
Was more like a video projector creating living sonic-images in the room.
The Dunlavys are a sealed box system. The front of the speaker is heavily felt damped (mids & tweets).
I'm also wondering about anything unusual about its crossover. I have to find out why these sounded so good!
The system: Audio Research VT-120 amp, ARC LS-2 pre, Theta DAC (pre-pro?), CEC Disk spinner, and Dunlavy wire. The room was about 25 * 25 with curtains on a glass wall and LPs on the rear wall. Power conditioning is unknown.
So I'm thinking it's either the acoustic suspension or a special crossover that made the difference.
Does anyone make large sealed box speakers anymore?
