Well, I didn't come so close to answer your question right. I saw a few from the German DIY scenery and for them it was like the return of Jesus, best sound on Planet But probably they are still deaf as usual, because the Frequency step ups are limited ( simple voice from Sinatra when he raised his voice, it was cut of from headroom) but the overall speed in effortless sound reproduction has had a fascination no other demo could deliver. |

Stitch, I am not able to make any conclusion about Silbatone being “still deaf as usual. I do not know anything about them. I know that behind Silbatone is a local industrial who make a lot of money in his field, for years was scarping WE around the world and now, purely for entertaining, he fancies an idea of making own speakers. There is nothing wrong with it. It is hard to say what is in his head and in his soil. The problem is that we do not hear from him and not clearly see his result of his efforts. The only voice that is coming from Silbatone is from the Joe Roberts and he is white trash culturally and industry pimp ethically. To judge anything about sound by listening Silbatone at show is very unlikely. You can say “something” about the GIP drivers they use but you will not be able to understand the sonic objective and expressive potency of the people behind the Silbatone. You need to hear Silbatone in well established installation, get Silbatone sound as final statement to understand where they are going and what they are trying to do. I do not have this experience and I am not familiar with individual components (would it be electronics of acoustic system) that they use in order to more or less accurately predict anything. A few years back when Silbatone came up with a large single plastic horn loaded by Manger they were wrong and it was bad design and foolish objective. At that time the whore Joe Roberts was goggling web and stick his tang in each ass that defecated word Silbatone’s Manger. At that time we swore that he put your own mama in pawnshop to buy Silbatone logo after he heard the glory of Silbatone’s Manger but I think that since then ever he shut the fuck up about that bad project. So, until somebody credible will explain of demonstrate the Silbatone result I will be still on face about what Silbatone does.

Premium drivers used are: Radian 950P with Truextent Beryllium diaphragm. Bass enclosure is of aperiodic vent type with actively driven 15" woofer. This construction is adjusted to give smooth, relaxed sound with lowest distortion possible even at driver resonant frequency - thanks to JMLC Horn contour8 ohmsFrequency response: 30Hz-20kHzMF & HF 100W power handlingLF 300W power handling(from their information paper) |

I do not know Radian 950P. I have seen that that retard from Brazil that was unfortunately was run over by a train yet was very pleased by Radian 950P. If so then the drivers most likely an incredible cap as the Brailian idiot might sever as a perfect test ground for nothingness in audio. I do not like the polish bass enclosure. They did come up with very slick horn assembly but the bass section (visual) does destroy the beauty of the whole installation. For sure I would like to see sealed enclosure but even the most important is that they need to make bass enclosure appearance-wise to match the rest of the system. I do not know anything about “JMLC Horn contour” and an idea that a MF horn can response from 30Hz-20kHz sounds too ridicules to me.
