Interesting, I really want to see measurements and prices.
I love how they're basically saying "don't worry, we're not snake oil sellers, just doing that to please retarded audiophiles".Responding to requests from our customer base, the new SB-G90M2 now features bi-wiring speaker terminals
Yep, very similar to the R7, both have 2 woofers + 1 coax 32 KG KEF , the Technics is 35 kg is very heavy towerSorry for not having bothered searching. It does compete properly with KEF's R serie pricing (R7 is £2600 and has the same woofer area), so definitely awaiting hard data.
By the way, is there some good quality (S&R or Klippel quality) data for the SB-C700? I really want to compare it with the new LS50; I'm especially skeptical concerning directivity (even if Stereophile shows something truly great up to ~14 kHz) and possibly distortion.

yep, i really like the coaxial towers because you can use them in nearfield/mid field more easilyI love coaxial drivers. Very interested in the measurements for these towers.
I haven't seen anything higher quality than stereophiles, but for what it's worth directivity is probably the most reliable part of any measurement across different measurement systems. In my own case even when there are some differences on-axis, directivity very rarely (perhaps even never?) varies much compared to anechoic sources.
What makes the SB-700 so interesting to me is that it's a wide directivity coaxial design with very nicely controlled directivity. That's quite the rarity.
SB-C700 of course, the other are vintage and not coaxial, although Technics had also a very good for that time coaxial series around in the mid 80sSB-C700 or SB-700? Or SB-X700A? Very different speakers despite similar model names.
