As an old designer I no longer have interest in front firing speakers. I believe the subject has reached a peak. It is as good as it will ever get. It still doesn't quite satisfy.
I am interested in open baffle and omnidirectional speakers and there more uniform power responce. I believe they hold the key to greater advancement of speaker design and enjoyment.
My research on the subject lead me to Sigfried Linkwitz web sight. I hadn't heard from Sigfried in over 20 years. I wasn't surprised to see he was well ahead of me in exploring this venue.
I signed up with this sight to gather information from others like myself wishing to go down this road.
If you have interest in this area, contact me. You will find I know a lot more than most you will talk to. I have test equipment and design software.
I am not interested in opening a speaker maufacturing company. This is personal with me. If I satisfy myself I know I would have satisfied others as well. Besides I am to old to start such a venture.

Well, you have wandered in to a hot bed of speaker development.

Hi dvsound,
Did my electronics and missile tech school at Mare Island back in the day. Lived in Sacramento but relocated to Nashville in 2006. I see that BudP has introduced himself already! We met when I was doing an omni project at this thread http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/show...00390&perpage=25&highlight=walsh&pagenumber=7
Working on an OB now based on a couple of other threads such as these: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=110435&highlight=

as well as Lynn O's thread that BudP mentioned.
There is also a thread about the "Burning Amp" festival that was held in SF a few weeks back that you should find interesting. http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=106844&highlight=

Nice to have an expert here.
Can you explain the Sonab speakers to us?
Look at the OA-14, OA-116, OA-2212.
I don´t understand the driver arrangements.
