Thanks Bo... yeah Bob and I have already spoke on the phone..

.. we have allot in common..
I'd love to trade some speakers for gear.. that's my goal.. But what I really would like to do, is create a strategic partership with a manufacturer to compliment my pieces.. As well as to use for shows like RMAF and the art gallery in Las Vegas that some of these will be shown at..
In regards to the listening angle.. I am huge on phase and time.. so I try mechanically align drivers and use 1st order slopes.. the issue that I ran into with these tweeters is their moutning baffles.. since the mounting flange was beveled.. I could not counter sink them and make them look good.. so some angling was done to aid this..
Very neat stuff Randy. I was going to suggest you talk to Bob about custom speakers with organic looks....but I see you two have already chatted. Maybe someone would be willing to trade some gear for a pair of speakers, relating to your comment about not having anything to play these on.
Regarding the Elise speakers, are those tall enough that the lay-back is aiming the tweeters above the listener?
Welcome to the group and great speakers....
Bo
