I came across an interesting speaker from Usher, the D2, that looks rather familiar. Joe D'Appolito does design work for Usher.

I hate loudspeakers that are taller than me and deeper than they are wide.
My wife wants to know if an ice maker is included in the price or if it's an add-on. :rolleyes:
The pop machine is included, the ice maker is a dealer installed extra cost option.
Alex.
Yeah, she was afraid it would include a pop dispenser and not include the ice maker. :( She won't have any of it! :no:
No wait... now she's saying if they toss in a perpetual chocolate dispenser she might consider it.
I think what she is getting at is something of value has to come out of those silly holes besides stale air. :rolleyes:
Actually, D'Appolito no longer works for Usher. He's been Chief Engineer for Snell, since the beginning of the year... his departure was announced at the Winter CES show.
I wonder when Usher will stop saying "designed by D'Appolito", on new stuff that wouldn't have been around to work on?
Here's the news report from when it happened, from High-End Audio News:
