    I ordered 15 A BT cuz I heard these at an outdoor event and I really couldn't believe how incredible they sounded. Here's my take.... if I needed speakers for small club, bar, tighter venues INSIDE, these don't have the clarity of sound at closer range that I felt my previous Alto's had. I only ordered 1 of these speakers because I wasn't sure if I'd like them. I teach tennis and wanted to try this speaker on the courts OUTSIDE. The sound of this single speaker outside is simply incredible. I fill 6 courts with music (of course louder at one end), but the bass and the volume is amazing. I know we normally buy speakers in pairs, but for my purposes outdoor sports I feel this one speaker would accommodate a couple hundred people over 4-6 tennis courts easily.

  • @steevidrums
    @steevidrums 2 года назад +3

    I might be wrong, but coaxial speakers used to be refereed to as dual concentric in UK. I had a pair of 12" monitors back in the 90's which were similar, the twitter was equal in its dispersion though, hence my slight doubt as to whether coaxial and dual concentric is the same thing. None the less, this looks like a great product.

      had coaxial in the UK since as long as i can remember, (certainly in my cars anyway).
      Not sure coaxial in this type of speaker is realistically important to be honest. Its more of an audiophile thing in my opinion (reproducing all frequencies on the same axis), rather than on a loud PA system. But I'm certainly interested in these speakers regardless, if it helps with clarity and imaging on them then great.

    L'acoustics is using coaxial monitors/tops since 1989 and never went back. Tannoy invented the coaxial speaker, but l'acoustics was the first to implement this in the live industry. Stage monitors in the pro audio industrie are mostly coaxial these days. That Being said, it's good your explaining coaxial speakers. I don't know if you explained it wel because you lost me after the introduction.
