Indeed
I am intelligent to completely understand the whole purpose of your initial point - period. Even after you try to close this issue, you get responses of disagreement! I said it before, these Audio forums are a place for the ill equipped to make themselves seem relevant and knowledgeable, without being either. I call it, "small man syndrome" This post of yours is articulate and accurate, we are the one's who get it. Volti speakers will travel a path they choose, and time will tell if they are still represented at audio shows several years from now. Who knows, maybe they will take something positive from this forum and perhaps take a different path of marketing. I know I would still love to see some spec's, I really love the look of them. Take Care mate, now let's finish this post for good.
I would just like to take a moment to say that Volti Audio is thriving. It has been a rewarding experience for me, to be able to provide my products to so many great customers over the years.
During my time in this business, I've seen many passionate speaker builders come and go. For whatever reason/s, they just couldn't make a go of it. It's a tough business, and if you don't have enough customers who love your product as much as you do, it's very difficult to sustain. Being good is simply not good enough. Your product must stand out and above. These folks who tried and didn't make it were just as passionate about building a great sounding speaker as I am. I am very fortunate that it's worked out for me.
I will continue to learn and I'll work hard to design and build the very best horn speakers I can. I'll do it my way, because that's the only way I can do it. In the process, I'm going to set policies that upset some people, and I'm sorry for that, I'm simply running my business the way I think I need to. To be fair, I always make sure my customers know about those policies before they send any money to me. I'll continue to design and build speakers that I like the sound of, and I really don't care that some people consider them to be poorly engineered because they don't meet an arbitrary standard of measured performance. It simply doesn't matter to me or to my customers. Another way of putting that is to say if if matters to you, you probably aren't going to be my customer. I can live with that.
If I don't provide enough details about my products for some customers, I'm sorry about that. I'm just running my business the way I think best. If I lose some customers because of that, I can live with that. I assume that if a potential customer is not able to find enough information on my website, or from reading about Volti Audio online to make them comfortable doing business with me, that they will simply go elsewhere. If a potential customer really pushes for information that I'm not willing to give and they get angry with me and choose to vent their frustrations on an online forum instead of just moving on, I think that speaks volumes about their personality, intent, and general demeaner, and confirms that I was right in my initial assessment of them.

Hello Greg
This is a 6 year old thread surprised you are responding to it now as you just brought this back into the frey. Glad you are doing well through this nightmare.
Here are a couple of reviews with measurements and manufacturer comments. Helps fill in some of the blanks and adds information missing from the beginning of the thread.
