Mark Seaton??? you're related ??
what a fantastic guy mark is... one of the best people in the business

Last I checked we were. I don't know him personally, but the family tree is absolutely huge. Grandma was one of 8 kids, grandpa was one of 12. I've got more cousins than you can stick a shake at.

Dylan at Ology Audio and I would like to announce that we will be partnering for quite a few incredible product offerings... and even more incredibly pricing
we will offer an array of home audio and car audio products from completed ultra high end floor standing speakers... to more fully custom subs and midbasses

we're discussing a very very very nice 8" product, components sets, coaxials, etc.

going to get a few local dealers here shortly.... and two heads are better than one //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

keep everyone updated as we finalize the 8" design....

I can't wait... jeez! This is going to be so nice. I can barely keep my mouth shut... but I don't want to make everyone expect say... a magnesium cone and it turn out being CFRP... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif or that it will be a seas excel on steroids with 4x the xmax... only for it to have 2.5x the xmax...

Lets just say I'm more than happy with how this is looking as a replacement for the discontinued HDS(xls) 8" from peerless... and then some for about the same price...

+-30? (notice the very wide spread... haha but atleast you know they won't cost as much as the excels that's for sure...)

Or for it to have a gold plated phase plug... for it to turn out as just solid aluminum or copper... Or that it will be useable up to 2khz… when it could turn out as having energy storage problems above 1.5k… ya know stuff like that isn’t final… or could end up coming out as something unexpected in the prototyping stages…

If anyone has something to say... suggestions... anything -- just drop one of us a PM... or possibly it is time to start a new thread on the topic...

Anywho back to preparation for a chem midterm... We were up till the weee hours of the morning working on this project… instead of studying for our quizzes and my midterm… how irresponsible! Haha… speakers are just too much fun…

..... anyways as for what’s on tap in the near future:

Release of Excelsior midrange

Release low-mid end home theater lines and stereo speakers... very art deco but at a very reasonable price.

Release some high end towers using the parts I already have...

Release of 8"

Release of mid end floor standers and release of mk2 high end towers using the new 8" and midrange

TBA... but trust me it gets very interesting //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

Well, these are sounding better and better. I was gonna give Dylan a PM about some x-overs, because I was looking at the Seas W18's off madisound, but hell, if they will perform like them, and be cheaper, and will also help support some people getting off the ground, I may sure as hell be down in trying a set of these when they come out.

 

[Feandil 10+ year member]

because I was looking at the Seas W18's off madisound,

no offense to seas or anything... the w18 ain't a slouch //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

but these should significantly best them ... if specs are met that is

hopefully dylan and I will keep the cost very low to DIYer's while keeping our dealers happy...

either way expect some incredible never been done before speakers... at well below any reasonable price //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Well, even if the w18's are a little better, the price per each is a little more than I wanted to spend, especially with out mating them up with a set of x-overs and tweets. I am trying to stay right around the $250-$300 range for my components...

lol I know it's hard sometimes for people to not equate $$$ with performance //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

so I won't get into it any more until Mark K gets me specs and I can graph distortion over the Seas offerings //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

hopefully we'll keep you happy with our LPG offerings for around $300 a component set //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif
