the manufacturer is quite young but engineering is trully outstanding...
-0.4 inch titanium tweeter with polished aluiminium horn custom made by Fostex

-cabinet with non paralel internal panels
-specially desined resonators and internal difusers to minimize cabinet coloration (look at their weight

)
in adition no screw-bolts could be found on front panel! difusers are screwed from behind
grille is fixed with magnets so there are no holes for grille-spikes as well!
EVERYTHING is thought through...
...and they realy do sound well
