Name the "Beast/HT4"

Well this one could be a little too obvious, may have even been suggested before, and has certainly been used by other manufacturers but enough that I don't think anyone would feel like it was a rip-off.

Salk Sound Signature

and Jeff Bagby developed the bass loading system. In any event, Googling names can be dangerous. A fellow economist here at the FTC decided to see whether any of his pathbreaking articles had received due recognition, and typed his name into the google search bar. 3 billion cites. Not bad for an FTC economist. The name? Roger Boner.

That just shows he doesn't know how to use Google.

Try this search instead:

You still get some chaff, but it should be possible to find the wheat now.

Thanks very much for the vote of confidence, but that would really be a misnomer. I'm only responsible for the crossover design and the idea of using some backwave information. Jim found the drivers and came up with a cabinet design that would preserve my insane demands,
and Jeff Bagby developed the bass loading system.

Call it the SaMuBa then. MuSaBa? BaMuSa?

I was thinking about the comment by Frank Van Alstine given in the Positive Feedback report on AKFest 2009.

"Frank commented that it was the first speaker that he had heard that could realistically recreate the sound of a live orchestra."

So how about the Salk Sound Live Series?

A more humorous name would be the "Impressed the Hell Out of Frank Van Alstine Series."

How about the "Almost as Good as BOSE Series."

Since these speakers should be the ultimate cure for the dread "audio upgraditis" disease why don't we call them the Salk Vaccines

That is too much of a coincidence not to be humor

Sorry if either of these have already been posted, just consider them additional votes.

These might have been suggested before. I didn't look back through all the posts.

Biblical names:

Rapture
Revelation

Non-biblical names:

Accuracy Series
Companion Series
Salk Signature Sound Dynamic Series

And this name:

Salk Signature Sound Truth or The Truth, either as a speaker name or series name. I prefer Truth as a speaker name, and later, there could be alpha-numeric designators for different models, i.e, Truth (model) and TL10 (version).

Truth, Salk Signature Sound's flagship speaker (or Truth, the flagship of Salk Signature Sound's Statement Series speakers), redefines the ambit of speaker reproduction. This speaker, the result of 8 years of intensive research and collaboration among industry-leading designers and manufacturers, employes (or utilizes) ............ and provides the listener with ............. but without the deficiencies that are unavoidable with speakers that rely on compromised crossover designs, ..........

Behringer has a series of speakers called Truth.

http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/B2031A.aspx

Fried Products also called their line "Speakers of Truth." Their site seems to be down, but here's an old version:

Of course the real truth is that neither Behringer or Fried has any speakers I would buy.
