You'll get no argument from me. It's not my ideal, but it seems more like an accurate description of someone being done with the hobby of building and simply enjoying what they enjoy. This person is living by
their definition of a perfect endgame, nothing else. It's just my fundamental problem with this thread. There's no way anyone can just say they want an endgame DIY speaker without an idea of what that might be already.
Somewhere out in Italy, there's a man with a
basement as a subwoofer. That guy might be better served by a distributed array of smaller subs, but I'm not gonna tell him. I'm not turning a whole room into a sub either, but that's the kind of commitment I kind of expect when people talk about something they'll never replace.
Frankly, even the WMTW in-walls
@IamJF made are a better example despite being far less permanent and expensive. They're for
him and really only him in that specific example. I can't find it anymore, but someone on DIYAudio made a set of OB's that were designed to have a perfect response for the room they're in, instead of traditional principles and adjusting their placement, by designing for the room as it was.
My ideal speakers are probably some kind of in-wall infinite baffle construction, but I need a house first...
