Well he designed a Hi Eff speaker kudos for that. THe edges around the drivers would seem prone to producing a lot of diffraction, the edges of the front baffle does have enough of a radius. The horn will probably a lot of HIM's. As others have said get a Geddes system or build your own correctly and save a lot of $$$$.
saw these, saw the price tag, laughed so hard i shot coffee out my nose.
I'm positive they're marketed as giving you an orgasm each time you listen, without a Mrs, or a book.
That makes it the best investment you ever made, questionable how safe it is to hand Marky-L cold hard cash.
(plus how the H to flush the taste of having nookie with a granny)

This seems like it would be an easy pair of speakers to clone. Does anyone recognize these drivers?
I would say it's pretty obvious that the trim rings are there to dress up the pro audio surround. I wonder if we are going to see this trickle down into reasonably priced speakers.

It did so years ago, I recall an old mates pair of TEAC speakers with the less resonant plastic rings........Bwahahahaha!!!!
Did anyone figure out what pro audio driver brand/model is being used in these speakers? The ridged paper cones remind me of this RCF driver: RCF LF18G400 18" Woofer Speaker 294-890
So for cost of $2000 in drivers/horns, maybe $200 in x-overs, $400 for the box, one could clone the M1? It is bi-amped so really only crossover is for tweeter horn and 12 in mid bass. Probably 1200 Hz? Does anyone know what the x-over point is? A budget version could probably be made with Eminence driver substitutes. Under $3k for the whole thing.

Yes, pretty much.
They've been mentioned in another thread including the actual driver list.
Can you point me to the thread with the driver list?
here I found something about M1 details which points to exact drivers used: Google translated
looks like Dmitry Medvedev has a pair -
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
In case your question is serious: Vladimir Putin, president of the Russian Federation and his stooge Medvedev.
Actually, I was serious but now that you say it, I recognize the faces - just did not expect politicians to be on a DIY forum post. So, basically it shows that the M1 is used by the elite who literally eat caviar and drive Bentley's. The $200k (?) turn table monstrosity made with solid irridium billets makes sense now. 🙂
damn this world! 😀

Bloody Russians have even infiltrated our Audio as well, new you could not trust the buggers.
On a serious note, just goes to show, when politics are put aside even they have good taste in Western products
