so many drivers, so little time . . .
This is what I hear:
1. Full range speakers are certainly not for everyone or all types of music.
2. they can be optimized for a certain frequency range but will not perform well at both high frequency and low frequency ranges? since my ears are older and I have played music my whole life (with a long stretch in VERY loud rock bands) my high frequency hearing is not that much of an issue!
3. Finding the right driver might be difficult as there are a lot of choices!
Duke - the Supravox looks great but like the php might be out of my price range for a DIY project.
Gmood - you gave me some great advice - Listen!
are there any single driver fans in the bay area who would be willing to share the sound of their favorite speakers with me?
Also the Brine's site is helpful along with his Yahoo group postings.
Thanks all, please keep the opinions coming!
