In the Thread: The most promising “best” commercial speaker

My own long expereince suggests that the better you understand and can "hear" in your head the Sound you want, the more likely it is that you will have to spend time and effort embedding components in order to get what you want from the system entire. If I recall correctly, Romy has been at pains to inform others that buying S2s is no guarantee of Good Sound, for myriad reasons, including sample to sample variations, prior usage, on and on, not to mention particular applications, including the horns, themselves. I am not sure what you mean about "perfect dynamcs" vs. better tone, but I am sure that it is possible to choose components and then adjust/season a system to taste. No doubt, you can do this, and I still don't see why it should/needs to cost so much. As I have never heard Cessaro Omega speakers, I am NOT including them in this conversation. But I am drawing on many years experience, along with what might be termed "audio common sense", the likes of which is common currency on this website. Of course, as a smart young wag (engineer...) once said to me, "common sense has nothing to do with engineering." Still, I think there is room for some common sense in terms of problem solving, in general., and no less in this case, in all likelihood.
