Ming,

what you say is not exactly accurate. I have MANY desiccations about it with number Goto users in past and if I am not mistaken then even some kind GOTO official from past event argued this point with me. He insisted that Goto require 4th order crossover and no time alignment. I was explaining to him the he was an idiot but he did stand resolute.  According to him with Goto drivers that time alignment is not so critical and it was like this years after years the Goto position. Frankly it was one of the major position why always did not take them seriously.

What even more interesting is that you are the US distributor, a very much official person and you make the comment like this: “If one has the room and space, one should consider it but if one does not have the room and space, one should not go crazy about the time alignment issue.” It has absolutely nothing to do with room and space and unless people use bass horns the time alignment it never a problem. The problem is when people go into very deep observations about the particulars of a given compression driver sound but are blind to very major problems that come from time-misalignment.

To have a sense of sight is possible absolutely mandatory requirements for the people who want to be truck drivers. To have a sense of hearing is possible absolutely mandatory requirements for the people who want to play musicians. To be athletically fit is mandatory requirement for a play in sport at certain professional level. A person might not be any of it but them probably the person is not qualified to claim any advanced driving techniques, of record sport results. The very same is with drivers. The time-alignment is absolutely mandatory and not obligatory condition. If the condition is not enforced ten all bets are off. If a person does not get it then there is absolutely nothing to talk with him about the sound if his horns drivers and he is clueless.

Funny but I assure you that most of your Goto customers are in fact clueless and if you with them to more enjoy your Goto drivers then you must to start very aggressive and very firm demand for time alignment. Not time-aligned must not be heard – big fat and very confident period!

BTW, one of the reasons why I am not so strong with trying your SG37 is because to incorporating it in Macondo in the time-aligned fashion is a bit tricky and of cause would never agree to try if without the time-alignment.
