Has AN considered single driver speakers or remaking the Snell Type A?

Posted by RGA (R) on August 25, 2007 at 18:22:16

Looking at Lowther drivers I found a driver that seems to pretty much be full range down to 30hz. I know nothing of the cabinet but I would invite you to look at Omega Loudspeakers which use a similar wide baffle cabinet -- even use AN knobs on their amplifiers. Now Omega is a budget speaker company and all but it seems like with AN know how and build quality etc that a single driver can really offer up some advantages.

And while I'm here -- the AN A beastie is something I want to see. If the Snell A is the speaker used as the master curve loudspeaker then why not a decked out changed port, corner beastie in the Tannoy Westminster sized speaker.

I suppose sales in Britain for such a big speaker would not be very large but then Tannoy is British and their Westminster is HUGE. And hey they like em in Korea with the tiny apartments.

The super 3XRS looks like it pays homage to the AN E. Even with the hemp drivers. I am wondering if this little company is owned by AN?
