Drivers definitely is a big factor here as lots of people already know the importance of directivity control/frequency response.
The CUE-100 is really good also using purifi's woofers. I hope there's a chance to listen to this pair of speakers someday.

For the avoidance of doubt, I was not suggesting for a moment in my opening post that good drivers is all you need to make a good pair of speakers. However, if you have a good design that plays to the strengths of some top quality drivers then I think you are going reap dividends in improved sound quality.
Can’t say because i only had the purifi 6.5mid it sounds good but like a Scan speak 12mu sounds good too i have replace it with a EMS LB6 full range for the 200/5k range and like it better ..
My argument was drivers cost has no major impact on retail price and sound of the speaker. Marketing policy and positioning of the speaker in the manufacturer's hierarchy of the products does have a major impact on the sound of the speaker. Also that progress in drivers development for the mainstream BR boxes is nonexistent. Different cone materials and magnet materials sound different like they always did and Purifies will be soon forgotten and abandoned like any other hopla because they are not sufficiently different from the average designs.
Also , those Living Voice boxes are not big and Bass is the weakest part of the speaker. It produces carboard box quality farts in truest British tradition. And they need closer to 30-60W not 10

I wish I could invest money in the betting markets against this opinion. I've set a calendar reminder for 5 years from today to come back and see how your prediction plays out.
Purifies know it themselves that's why the pricing is so aggressive. They need to cash out as soon as possible and get the investment back plus a hefty profit to introduce something else to bored public who seen everything already and is never hungry.
you can't blame only them , it is today market , Scan speak do the same , bliesma etc.. have you seen the stupid price of SCAN SPEAK D8404/552000 Dome ? people are crazy 😆
I'm sure Papa Pass already ordered a truckload of them and Pippi Longstocking is betting his kidney to secure a pair as well
Kawero has a couple of models now using the Al cone Purifi woofers.
Presently Kawero 's web site does not show these, photos from Instagram.

Kawero are lovely speakers for elevated tastes. I would love to have a pair when I want to listen to spiritual music and opera voices. The small problem is I dig ditches for living and my natural environment is fags yodeling the country tunes. This can make anybody bloodthirsty ( well anybody except 95% of Americans ). The main problem of high end speakers is that they turn more aggressive genres into wedding band patties- no exceptions.
