I think it's too bad if PE takes market away from B&C with these products. In my opinion, B&C really hit a home run with the DE250, and when I first tried it I liked it better than the JBL driver, with no regard to cost. Just sounded a little smoother and more natural to my ear. They deserve to make a profit on it, especially since they offered it for a bargain price, compared to the other drivers it competed with. I'd like them to spend some of the profits as a reward for a good job, then plow a little back into R&D to make the next great advance that we'll all be looking for in the future. I don't believe the copycats of the world are going to move us forward the way the real designers do.
