It highlights how being a generalist allows someone like BP to tackle a problem like speaker design from first principles. For him, DSP is used quite seamlessly with the traditional technology of speakers to create a simple, linear transducer. While other manufacturers harp on about exotic materials that have no rational basis in improving the sound, or are only required to mitigate the problems of the traditional speaker (e.g. do they go three-way, with the sonic problems of passive crossovers in the middle of the audible range, or two-way with the sonic problems of drivers being stretched into break-up and beaming?) he simply tackles the problem head on. It is all too easy for 'time served' speaker makers to perpetuate primitive technology with a pseudo-high tech gloss, and much more interesting when someone comes along who can see the problem for what it is: simple, but needing a seamless blend of technologies to solve.
