    But beyond the look/colour/texture, I'd expect some changes in the radiation effects. Wouldn't the stiff texture imply less energy radiated?

    Sigberg Audio Manta (12" wideband cardioid active speakers) development thread

    Agreed on the wood contrast, something lighter than walnut may look more elegant. I find matt colours best (no issues with fingerprints). The material used for the ports looks different (mesh type). Have you experimented different types of mesh?

    Sigberg Audio Manta (12" wideband cardioid active speakers) development thread

    I can’t stop listening to live recordings of female voices with the Mantas. Soundstage and clarity are both incredible I find.

    It is not that easy to remove the XLR cables, you need to hold the case firmly. Not a concern at all.

    End Game Speakers - The Quest Continues

    It depends I think. Most speaker brands for the average audiophile tend to release speakers with enhanced treble a la B&W, Focal, Sonus Faber, etc... So yes, new models may indeed 'sound' worse than the previous ones. For monitors, it seems that there is often improvements in design. Either...

    End Game Speakers - The Quest Continues

    In general, there is always an expectation that what is not released yet will be better in some sense. Concerning DD, I think MKR is right to wait and see the coming bigger model.

    Advice needed - Kef LS60 vs Kii vs D&D

    Not for the average hobbyist indeed :cool: Each woofer gets 1000W, the mid and tweeter 500W each - 3000W in total!

    Possibly. The cardioid subs on the pic I attached are 14’’. The ME800K on that picture have 2x15’’ woofers.
