Non time aligned speakers sound tizzy. How many microphones do you know of which have separate transducers for bass and treble? (OK there are some but they are V. close together). How is a typical flat fronted two way speaker supposed to "REPRODUCE" an event when it rips it to pieces in the time domain? The effect of this is that fizzy tizzy sound, which in association with all the other nasties (like multi-stranded speaker cable and opamps) which can make the mass market Hi Fi ultimately irritating to listen to, especially on highly processed sound like FM radio.

I read Ken Kesler's review of these little chaps in English Hi Fi Magazine Hi Fi news, and I knew that I wanted a pair. They appealed on several levels. They were cheap, they had non chip-board box and the tweeter looked very interesting. When I listened to them in the shop I knew they must be doing some thing right because I could hear cheap amplifier etc.
