Supravox reviews - 215 EXC or Sig?

[mgreene]

I have been following the "field coil" discussion since the aborted Fertin group buy in Brian's earlier thread.

Some time has passed, can anyone give a rewiew/impression/2nd hand impression on how the Supravox 215 Sign.Bicone (not field coil) stacks up to the 215-2000 EXC (field coil)? And I guess to other well known speakers as well.

I am wondering if the extra money is justified. Also, what about a Supravox group buy?

Regards

Mike

Well, I have not yet heard the 215 EXC, but it is scheduled in for an upgraded version of the Speaker I'm working on, together with a nice Ribbon Tweeter and special Fieldcoil Supply designed also to raise the Qt of the Driver for open baffle operation.

Fieldcoil drivers have something few others have....

BTW, I should have my metalwork tomorrow so HOPEFULLY I'll have two Supravox Baffles playing soon.

Very interesting Senior Wang,

Any links to the PS design?
