Oh yeah, those things, SteinMusic Harmonizers. I forgot which room they were in. We noticed them, but I made no effort to learn about them. Thanks for that link Steve. I'd like to say that was entertaining to read, but it was so full of bs that it defies comment.
If its important to "get air molecules moving inside the listening room" why not use one of these?

I had charged up one set of batteries before going, but I forgot that the batteries in the camera might also need charging. They died quickly once I started using the camera.
So I changed them and got about a dozen pictures, nothing spectacular, like the SteinMusic Harmonizers in action. Maybe I'll remember to get them off the camera tonight.
Talking to Frank Van Alstine made me want to buy something from him. I have absolutely no need for a $2000 2-channel amp or a $1400 tubed preamp, but I can get a 15% discount if I order before the end of August

AJ's speaker had none of the ugly sounding horn speaker characteristics I've heard on other speakers before. Overall, they sounded good. They did have noticeably narrower dispersion in the mid range and higher frequencies, as is intended by the controlled dispersion design.
Maybe that's not what gets me to grin. If the drivers are carefully selected and the crossovers are carefully designed, there is wide sound dispersion and no startling change in the dispersion width as one driver hands off to another. We both have speakers designed by someone who routinely achieves that with his designs.
