Didn't realize that there were that many contestants.

I think that with tube amps being such a niche item within a niche hobby (audio), in the grand scheme of things, little difference will be seen if tubes stay or disappear in terms of overall electrical consumption.

Is it a Hall of Fame when it has such a large membership?

Rolloff rate below cutoff can show up the difference. A sealed box will roll off at a slower rate than a vented box design will once bottom of the frequency response range is reached.

When you're in he sweet spot, it's see-through sound, as if the speaker weren't there.

The stuff that bulls & cows make, yes; the human generated variety, not so much.

Good ol' Bullshit; There's a lot of it about! Plenty around-will never run out.

...or unintended pratfall.

My impression of ESL's is that flat ones are very beamy; step off to the side of one just a bit and the highs disappear. Curved ones may prevent that. I've never heard a curved ESL, so I don't experientially know.

True.

Lesser capacitance of the shorter cable may have resulted in a bit less HF rolloff if the source impedance feeding it were sufficiently high.

UL and CE approvals would be good to have for any product that plugs into a wall outlet.

Bedawk!

Amazing! What on earth is going on there?

You can have small size. The speaker can go very low in bass frequencies. It can go loud. You can have any two of those three.

Flooby dust.

That, or the remote does a dive between the couch cushions and you can't find the darn thing.

No known audio equipment does that.

Makes total sense to me now. Hadn't thought of that.

Reviewing without unboxing? Howzat 'spozed to work?
