Hi Wayne

I understand and respect and your position. I would feel similarly. Personally, I do not put much stock in most subjective reviews etc. and feel they can often be more hindrance than help.

I was not so much looking for a better - best type of comparo; I was seeking a greater understanding of the two flavours. You have provided that to the point you are comfortable. Thank you for your help.

Cheers
Raymond

Should I say that, maybe it's important for some people and this does not affect the sound, ae/12S has a foam surround (like the e/LAB12). Do you think this is an important detail/decision for some people, like me - it's my opinion, saving money in the long run and keeping its (speaker) resale value. Note: the only one that doesn't have a foam surround is the Lambda Series TD12M.

Looking forward to measurements of Three Pi with TD12S woofers, especially true efficiency numbers.

Thanks for all of your hard work. You have brought another high quality speaker option to the masses in your Three Pi with TD12S.

Hi Wayne,

Is your TD12S with or without the Apollo upgrade? Any idea if it worths the extra $100 each?

Thanks.

I bought (and tested) the TD12S with Apollo upgrade. One of these days, I'd like to test standard TD12S woofers to compare, but since I haven't, I can't say how much improvement is gained from the upgrade. I wanted this design effort to focus on the premium part first.
