[QUOTE="neo_styles, post: 8004248, member: 644168"] Wonder if anyone noticed this wasn't posted in the dome...I guess it'll either get relocated today or PR/WD/OB are going to be deleting a lot of posts today. I think the only justification these companies have for charging exorbitant amounts of money for their comps are that they always try to find some way to use a rare metal (which doesn't ever really help since carbon fiber tends to be more rigid and costs way less to manufacture at the expense of low-end extension) or they use bonkers crossover networks (which could be avoided by just building a better driver at the price they charge). If you want some good reads, look through some of Zed or HAT's manuals/white papers on the subject. People want to feel like they're getting more for their money and with the size/complexity of those Brax comps in the OP as well as Morel's upper end, I really have to wonder if the SQ side of the CA industry has lost its mind to an extent. For the naysayers who think those crossovers are vital, explain to me how people STILL manage to do better with the same drivers by going active... [/QUOTE]
