having exposed woofer sticking out and so close to the floor could only be designed by a no-kid and no-pet person
It isn't. But you can pre-order it.I didn’t get tagged when a new subwoofer was released?

It could. Buchardt A500/700 already do work with other WISA preamps. But not sure until we have official specsWould this sub work with the WiSA enabled MiniDSP Flex HT with Dirac Live?
It's not yet realised, not even officially listed. Please focus on convincing Erin to test it instead.I didn’t get tagged when a new subwoofer was released?

That's 25l, really small for a 10" sub.490 x 320 x 160 mm
Agreed. Wireless and it can hide under the couch away from the kids and out of sight of the missus. Winning combo for me.WiSA connectivty appeals to me for use with the A500.

For comparison:
SVS 3000 Micro: 22.4l
Neumann KH 750: 44.4l
Correction - it's a cash FLOW trick. Take the orders up front and use the money to pay your factory for the inventory. It's actually great for smaller brands who don't necessarily have $250K-$1M sitting around. For brands like this it will tend to keep the cost down... otherwise they'll generally have to pay high rates for short term loans, which in turn figure into the prices of their goods.I can't take this "pre-order" thing serious. It's a cash grab trick.
I didn't say it was. The practice is shady. I did not say Buchardt is abusing it.How's it a cash grab? The customer saves €150 and still gets the standard 45day trial after which you can return it for a minimal fee.

What people need to remember about Buchardt Audio is that they got their start designing speakers for the small rooms of many homes, including the Danish homes there. So this sub makes a lot of sense for them.You’re a hard lot to please
I don’t need one but am impressed that they’re actually considering how to make these things more suitable for a multi use living room. It’s about time.
Well, there is often no such thing as "small batch" in the audio world. In many cases, either you buy thousands of units of something, or you take a hike.Like it has been abused in start-ups, kickstarter and the video game industry for years.
If you can't back up a mass production as a company you should perhaps make small batches and not make your customers into an interest free bank loan.
What is it about a fool and his money..
You give them money before they have actually delivered what they promise. If the product is bad they already got the money.
Judging by the Flex HT manual, WiSa does not seem to have such a crutch intrinsically as you can freely assign WiSa speakers to any of the 8 outputs.(though I don't think WISA can address four individual processing subs - or can it?)
