Good explanation Wayne.
What always amazes me is just how good engineers could get those speaker to sound 45 years ago, before computers or space age materials. They must have really put the ole elbow grease into R&D.

I'm looking forward to getting a pair of MC-8's to compare with the LS-8's. The MC-8's are a newer ceramic magnet replacement for the LS-8's with lower Qts and smaller voice coil, different shaped whizzer. Did EV's newer stuff get better, or did they go downhill with the cutting corners thing? Did newer tecnology make a better driver? I'll be finding out soon.

Dave
