Interesting, thanks for sharing.

looks like about 5k euros for a pair if you buy in germany, for the largest unit- not bad! The lenses in front of the woofers look to act as dispersion widening for the woofers. I wish there were better performance documentation available- these could be superb systems.

I really liked MTM design. Hope they make a matching sub. Else bass extension may not be adequate for home audio use.

This design is all about obtaining a high SPL with a tiny compression driver, not sure it is the best path for home use.

look´s like a cheap design with cheap driver parts
if it cost more than 5000 euro for pair it is way to expensive!

I do hope that you are right. If it's cheap I don't mind experimenting.

The 2275h used in the top model is a differential drive motor, I haven't seen anything on the compression driver, I'm not sure it's safe to assume it's a cheap design, despite the chintzy look of the baffles. The dual driver tweeter setup is about coverage, presumably aiming the lobes slightly up and slightly down to expand the coverage pattern without having to narrow each lobe by virtue of a larger horn for better vertical pattern.
