Well, it has been said a lot about the Open Baffle concept at this site. The new concept that you introduce into a discussion is price. Yes, the today’s Open Baffles are pricy and snobbism along with a sense of faux superiority that the Open Baffles are being sold is the unavoidable ingredient of the price forming.
There are very few drivers out there that can play more or less decently in Open Baffle without being high-passed above baffle frequency. Generally they are very pricy driver and generally they are not mass-market drivers. I would tell you something else and I have a LOT of reasons to say it: if a speaker with the driver is being sold by a salespersons then it is not good driver for the given Open Baffle.
Still, I would not discard Open Baffle as a concept, particularly if the person has taste and knows how do not go too low.
