Shipping large speakers
I have a hot tip for you. Call Steve Title at Gateway Crate and Freight. He can arrange al this for you and the best part is that he can offer very inexpensive insurance. They even have a white glove service. Pallets and shrink wrap are indeed ide...

I love the magazine ads that showcase the crossover. All these parts. In some cases there is more going on in the crossover as some single ended amplifiers have circuitry. They also have notch filterers to eliminate cab resonance at certain freque...

Yes. It is nice to eliminate as much crossover as possible. Crossovers are subtractive, they take away from the signal. Pay good money for an amplifier and the the damn speaker sucks out the signal. Not nice.

Here is what Wilson Beseech is doing. http://wilson-benesch.com/products/endeavour-stand-mounted-loudspeaker.htmlThey are using two drivers in clam shell configuration. The driver that projects music/sound into the room is not facing the listener ...

RalphI think the implications of an aerodynamically designed speaker is foreign to most. A major goal of a good driver must be to deal with the back waves of sound. Having them bounce off the basket and back through the paper thin cone is just not... 
Incredible deal on incredible amp
Why is that amp incredible? Do they sound any good?

I wouldn't necessarily start with the drivers. First I would get rid of the MDF.

Voxativ loudspeakers and drivers
It is fun isn't to enjoy the midrange and uppers so much that the lack of deep bass is a non issue. I see so many posts where people are looking for a subwoofer to match there speakers. I think if the speakers have a really good, organic midrange ...

normie57Let us know how well you live with these speakers. I ask for a reason. I have had a number of single drive speakers. They all eventually wore me out. Just to much of a " good " thing, 
I guess I have to sell my Tekton Enzos
There are lots of speaker designers that slow roll it. They come out with a new cross over or port design. Going to fix everything, right. Not sure whether it is from negative feedback or simply more time spent with their own speakers.  
'Box' speaker that reproduces the piano well.
Avanti1960 has a good point. Smaller speakers or monitors will improve the sound. Piano's to me sound boxy. Smaller speakers don't have all the cabinet resonance of large speakers so they are cleaner sounding. 
Opinion - Every audiophile should build at least 1 pair of speakers
My God if this stuff continues we well end up with another 800 speaker design/builders.
