[QUOTE="Steven Kephart, post: 801352, member: 548397"] Hi guys. Just a couple minor points to add-to or correct. Neither DEI or JBL have their own motor technology. Both liscense them from other companies. However JL Audio does own the patent on their motor which is an optimized overhung. We have found that some people are so used to the distortion produced by their subs, they don't like the sound of an XBL^2 driver. This seems to be more true in subwoofers as I haven't seen anyone prefer a higher distortion midrange yet. The most well reguarded midranges have the lowest distortions (Seas Excel, Scan-Speak Revelator, and now our Extremis 6.8). Steven Kephart Adire Audio [/QUOTE]
