Still, with stepping away from my position that any so called “full-range” driver shell, be $200-$300 easy came easy go solution, like Fostex for instance , I would like to note the not the price itself  or topology is something that alert me in Feastex. What I find peculiar is the Chris Witmer’s desire to defend the new prices.

Pay attention, nether Chris nor anybody else say that the new $40K Feastex drivers (probably the whole speaker cost 10K more) is able to do  sonically something that the former Feastex drivers can’t. In fact they might be able but no one task about. Instead Chris dives into debating the fear of Permendur… As far as I can see it, it is radicals or it least it might work only for DIYAudio-level of simpletons.

So,  what I would like to see is Chris Witmer along with his Fostex propaganda machine shell drop any conversation about price they are obviously at disadvantage in this filed. Chris shell state that it is his price and suggest disagreeing parties to go fuck themselves. He reply to price-critique shell be something like this: “OK, the $40K Feastex is expensive, but look what result the numerous alternative multi-channel speaker deliver foe the same price?” Actually if he ask like this then he would be greatly correct: look what the industry sell for $40K. Well, in the world where people sell turning knobs for $500 or SET amplifier for $300K why a full-range driver shell not cost $40K?
