Thanks, Jack. Looks like you and Michael have a better idea on the pricing. Hope it works out for him and his partner. Some guys are great designers. But not everyone is cut out to run a business = Bob Smith

When he was designing speakers for TAD there were models well over $100k.  I expect this new speaker to be well over $20,000.

I am not aware of all the designs that Jones has done over the years and what his most expensive model was. 20k seems high, but it's a nice cabinet and the field coil stuff might be pricey. But I'll guess $17,500

Hope all is well overseas

Nick

I watched the first couple of videos about these new speakers. I know they're trying to build interest and enthusiasm for them, but it sure would be nice to know at what price they're going to debut. I'm betting it'll be in excess of $20k.

Anyone care to guess?

Ted offered to pay for him and his measuring equip to Teds Factory to measure away and LISTEN. Amir declined. After design measurements VOICING of such is what makes the component sound the way it does. Companies like CJ, Border Patrol, Aqua Acoustics and many more do that.

Danny Richie of GR Research made the same offer.  Amir is descended from a long line of ostriches.

Why change anything if you have a fan club of devoted followers. That kind of tunnel thinking rubs me the wrong way...
