Well, now we know the "kid's" favorite speaker manufacturer!
Actually, I just picked B&W because they're big and well established. As for my true fav, you'll have to email me about that - don't want to post it to the forums
Seriously, it has to be Audio Physic (http://www.immediasound.com/AudioPhysic.html). Not because I've ever heard them (I haven't) or think they're good (no idea), but because I can respect their thinking - absolutely NO rhyme or reason to their product line - it looks like some speakerbuilder was too busy thinking if he 'could' and not if he 'should'. My type of company.
Thinking along those lines, I'm presently planning for my senior EE design project to be... (drumroll).... active 3-way floorstanders with DSP crossovers. It's scary how close I can get to it (from a knowledge standpoint) today. I'm going to try and get my potential senior lab partner to the meet (Blake, he's specializing in DSP/telecom). If we can get Matlab installed on Jonathan's computer we could even do a little DSP primer about IIR, FIR filter basics and potential audio apps.
I think saying Thomas and I got off on the wrong foot is a fair (if nice) way of putting it. I'm sure my ego had a fair amount to do with that too. I'll be interested to hear what he had to say at the meet (can't garauntee I'll agree, though)
