A smart move in the long run. A lot of people will cringe at a $150 for shipping on a $575 item but will be okay with free shipping on a quality $725 pair of speakers. The idea that they aren't paying for shipping makes people happy.
Phew, I thought I was the only one that thought that on the website. The finish on the speakers actually looks better in the photos customers have posted, the pictures on the site make the speakers look a little bland. I thought the entire speakers were plastic from the pictures. I had dismissed them based on initial impressions and then when I saw pictures posted here was much more tempted to order.
It is a mix of pictures that seem like they'd be for technical equipment and flashy movement. Bland and flashy is not a common combination.
I also thought I was the only one who found those confusing./\/\/\
Would it be a nit if I suggested to aSciLab to re-evaluate their current/confusing model-numbering convention?
While it does make sense now and is probably great for internal information and distributors; if I need a decoder ring to figure it out, it still isn't fun for me. As the line expands it is only going to get worse.
That was fast. We need other models too though
Well keep refreshing then
They will come.

But the graph shows more bass for the FB6?
I would say not if you're not gonna be using them with a sub, because the Adam T5V reaches lower in the bass. You could also use Amir's measurements of the T5V to do an Anechoic EQ on them to make them even better, (you could probably just use Maiky's EQ). If you're gonna pair both with a sub then the Ascilab has lower distortion and a better frequency response, albeit you'd probably have to cross it at 120Hz for the Ascilab, and we've already said you can do an Anechoic EQ on the Adam T5V to make it better than it already is. If you sit fairly close to the Adam T5V and don't listen at loud levels then you may as well stick with the Adam T5V I'd say.
Why isn't there a single model with a soft dome?
Nobody should be concerned with whether a tweeter is a soft or hard dome. What matters is the performance of the speaker as a complete system.
I'm extremely confused by this. You're "skeptical" of phase plugs, because... reasons? But you acknowledge that this one's "a real deal"? What is your actual concern?
I updated my post,read it.
They probably didn't hear you at Revel Focal TAD and other companies that offer beryllium domes, not to mention Bowers and Wilkins and they "diamond"snaik oil
Be and Diamond coating makes less break up peaks. They are pushed up and also well damped. But less break up means also more perfect piston excursion by being more rigid diaphragm. That leads to have narrow dispersion at top frequency.They probably didn't hear you at Revel Focal TAD and other companies that offer beryllium domes, not to mention Bowers and Wilkins and they "diamond"snaik oil
Oops. I read the post backward.
Sorry about that.
@AsciLab As you can see many people have difficulties with the names. I really think you should reconsider this system with letters. Some good suggestions were made already..This "s" is a problem because it looks like a pair of F6B versus a single F6B.
