As far as pricing goes I don't see any published numbers. I was reading about the new driver on the "L-A-Driver" page, the top button in the upper right corner of the home page at Belifurari.com, and if you look at the pictures of the driver itself, at the very bottom of that page, it appears that it might be fully hand made. If that is so then I am sure it is not cheap. It kind of reminds me of Feastrex, all hand made and uber-expensive. I was also reading the "Fidelity" page where it addresses free air resonance and presents a rather eyebrow raising anology. In the second paragraph of the "Natural Vibrations" section it talks about tethering the strings of a double bass violin to the body of the instrument.....and compares that condition to the spider and surround of available speakers. Do you think this could true?
