what's an everest sound like ..??
Sort of like a Matterhorn, but with a somewhat taller sound............
Haha
There's a pair in MSP somewhere. Ask "thevidkid". He saw a pair set up at a retailer once, and has had a fever for them ever since.
I think he said they were $17K, or the last time a set was on A'gon, they were asking that. I forget.

The effect is not perfect in my rudimentary setup, but it's there. The Everest white paper reveals the other parameters that must be controlled for it to really work. The other asymmetrically controlled directivity (S2600, S3600) products attempt the same, presumably....
"They sound like 2344A biradials..."
Compliment or condemnation?

Always a compromise somewhere
....for sure. I just hate compromises that also include bathtub sized speakers.
