Groovy. The planars and the SI amp come in package for $70
retail. The ad copy is great too: "after _months_ of research...." [emphasis added].


So the planars are cardboard with transducers running through the
Sonic Impact amp? Or are they true planars membranes? I remember an elegant planar design put forth at one of the zen forums-- that was a long time ago. Construction details were never forthcoming from the author.


This is obviously a 'high retail' product. But I certainly haven't
seen it or anything like it in the stores. Not to be snooty, but it
sort of looks like something found at your favorite Box Box store.

As to the Jordan, yes I've been fascinated by Jim Griffin's build
for years. But the price of the Jordan is getting further out of reach as our currency devalues and the war goes on. I good looking
build from BrianGT. My plan was to retrofit 2 well made carcasses
I have with the Jordan 92s or a single driver equivalent of high quality but lower price point.


Thanks for the BrianGT link. It shows a lot of detail on that build.
