Aether Audio used to be SP Technology. The speakers were made by Bob Smith and were all speakers that shot well above the asking price in sound quality. He made the Timepiece Mini, Timepiece 2.0, 2.1, 3.0, Continuum 2.5, and the mighty Revelation 2-cabinet speakers. All of them utilized the waveguide to augment the tweeter to give it much more power, 360 degree dispersion, with zero downsides that a horn might have. The smaller speakers were 2 way, and the Continuum was a 2.5 way with one of the identical mid-woofers acting as a mid-woofer and the other as a more pure woofer. The Revelation was a Continuum on the top cabinet, and the bottom cabinet was a folded transmission line with 3 tuned ports near or on the front lower portion of the cabinet. Both the top cabinet and the bottom had identical 4" x 8" rectangular holes cut in to allow the woofers on top to utilize the space of the entire bottom cabinet to augment the bass to be much more powerful and defined when connected. There was a wood 3/4" wood spacer that surrounded the entire hole on the top of the bottom cabinet that was screwed and caulked which sealed the airspace between the two cabinets when they were on top of each other from the weight of the upper cabinet sitting on that spacer plus a metal rail that was screwed into the outer perimeter of the top of the bottom cabinet. All the Aether speakers had prodigious bass for their size and wonderful sound. Bob Smith was the first to make a proper working waveguide tweeter design and caused a whole generation of speakers to make a waveguide for their speakers. Bob just knew how to make them sound this good better than all who followed IMO. I believe the Revelation speaker was only made by SP Tech, as Bob concentrated on making the smaller speakers during the latter Aether Audio manufacturing. Bob was and is a genius in the audio field but has never had the continuous backing of investors to allow him to concentrate on making his awesome speakers. Aether Audio is currently making some sound enhancement products and power cables. Bob Smith is the man behind TDSS which repairs and upgrades Nuforce and Nuprime electronics. His son Cody is also a key part of the team and highly talented in the electronics field.
