Here is the scoop: they use 4 DDD wave transducers in a line array on each side. If that’s not fancy enough there are 6-inch metal cones that accommodate the mid-bass and 4, 12-inch honeycomb flatcones, housed in steel frames, in the subwoofers of these gargantuan monsters; they are some of the biggest flatcones that have ever been created for any speaker. Finally, to top it all off the wood finish is created from custom and imported veneers that look sweet…to the tune of a quarter million dollars.
