Interesting you come after me but not Skeptic that multidirectional is superior to ALL front firing designs. Is that a true universal statement WmAx? Yes I should not have said all Omnipolar designs were inferior - but Mr. Superiority Snob Skeptic seems to think he knows everything so lets hear his design.

I am relaying respnses from an engineer - you are quite welcome to get into it with him but this forum has so few engineering types that skeptic can pretty much say whatever unmolested. But his Bose post seemed a bit strange because I have found all multi-directional speaker set-up sto sound BAD - and i mean BAD - expensive or not. The neat factor they may be but listenable - well if you know of one I should try I would eb happy to but because they're so bad no one carries them in my area - because if it was good at all it might actually sell.


Here was the response:
"Total disinformation. A multidirectional tweeter array cannot give anything but poor performance. Any 2nd semester audio engineering student is aware of this, which bespeaks little of the technical expertise of the person who wrote that piece. When you consider that his listening room is half-glassed it's not hard to understand why his concept is so half-assed."
Bill Fitzmaurice

So you are welcome to ask him further as to specifically why. He must be right he even managed to rhyme.
