Is there a genie inside :D :confused:

There's no measurements, which is dissapointing, but RAAL tweeters are very highly regarded.
And I couldn't find a price. This looks like a design put together by the inventor of the RAAL. He's an extremely talented dude who always brings something interesting and outside-the-box to audio shows. I have no idea how these sound. That would depend on the crossover network--the tweeters themselves are beyond reproach. But unless one of us wins a serious lottery, don't expect any first-hand reports.

From inside the link noted

""The omnipolar true ribbon sports an aggregate surface area of 315 square centimeters as opposed to your garden-variety 1-inch dome tweeter. The crossover transition from bass sphere to midrange array occurs at 200Hz with a combined 1st/2nd-order lo/hi-pass. An equivalent transition is set at 2500Hz between mids and ribbons. The input impedance of the forthcoming 300-watt 8 x KT88 push/pull amplifier will be 16 ohms, the customer's amp to drive the mid/high array (and input of the included bass amp) sees 4 ohms for the direct connection. Frequency response is 30 - 40,000Hz and anechoic sensitivity is 90dB. Perceived sensitivity in a standard (echoic) room will naturally be higher because it adds the reflected energy. Alex estimates about 94-95dB. Recommended amplifier power is 10 - 500 watts and total dimensions are a surprisingly compact 63 x 63 x 155cm, with the diameter of the mid/hi cluster 20cm or slightly wider than a CD jewel case. The weight of each speaker is a rather manageable 85kg. The external bass amps will be approximately 30kg each""
