Hmm that's a bit pricey. Got any hard performance numbers? It's kind of a high price but is probably the end all be all if bass. A dedicated planar sub must be amazing.

The DWM isn't a sub, but rather a woofer. It's spec'd down to ~40 Hz, although it can go lower in some setups -- I understand that they were getting response down to 25 Hz when combined with the 3.7's at CES (both 3.7 and DWM woofers playing together).

Better than an Edsel, ha, ha.

If they integrate well with the panels, that's a good thing for sure.

The problem with the end table dwm is.. You don't really have the option of placing it like you would a regular sub. A pair of those in mapped out spots like some subs would look out of place.

Of course you do! You can put it anywhere you want! Bolt them on the ceiling!!! Who cares how it looks...

True. I'm not sure how to get around that, in an analog system, anyway.

I was just exchaning PMs with AJZepp and here's a funny one:
I've been home sick for a few days and was recuperating with some Tom Waits.
I'm half dead from the antibiotics and I put on the album and Tom Waits is muttering away in one of his little plastic bullhorns about something or other so I crank the volume up expecting that to be the normal volume for the song and start to shuffle back to the couch.
I'm 4" behind a 20.7 and suddenly it's like the showroom from Guitar Center falls on me as the drums and guitars come slamming into my head.  YOW!!!
This one fellow wrote a review said Tympani whacks are startling through these speakers.  He should try putting on some Tom Waits.

[Emsquare]

No one recuperates by means of Tom Waits. It has been suggested that Tom Waits' liver killed alcohol and no one ventured an objection.

Lucky that Tom Waits didn't mort your Maggie's!

In 1964 there was the Atomic Energy Act (and was an amendment to an earlier act of the same name) or something like that, that made it difficult to source all of the elements to make Alnico Magnets and this spurned the making of Ceramic or Ferrous magnets and it was also that they were less expensive.   We now walk in the age of Neodymium which is lighter that both ceramic and alnico and costs in between the two.  Ceramic tends to have better bass, alnico is sweeter and I haven't experienced enough of the Neodymium to really have a dyed in wool feeling other than it is a bit brighter and edgy. 

Again, these are my opinions and ymmv.

IMO, Its not the sound of the magnets you are hearing , as speaker sensitivity increases  it loses its spectral balance and grows unevenly, taking on a bright shouty character. You always end up losing some sensitivity when going for a balance .
