I know very little about this company.
http://www.kilimanjaro-series.com
It called after an African mountain but the guy sells his drivers out of French ebay.

So, I presume that he is from French Equatorial Africa - had to say – a half of North-Western Africa speak French.
What I wonder if the Kilimanjaro company. Are the same as the German “Great Vintage Loudspeakers”.

The drivers look similar but in the Kilimanjaro site there is no mentioning of “Great Vintage Loudspeakers” affiliation.
I think it might be a sign of two things. Ether they just try to crates different companies to promote these drivers at different locations with different flavor. Or the company was spit and somebody started his own venture with the similar products. Both cases are fine by me.
That is still do not answer the most interesting question: how those drivers sound. The $3.5K for a pair of converted JBL375 drivers is expensive but not the end of the world. I would like them to write the critical review what they do NOT like in the sound of standard JBL375/2440 and what they feel their electromagnetic driver does better. But it would be too rational thing to wish….
