When someone starts debating ultra-tweeter response above 15K Hz, I walk. That is bat and canine audio range.
And vibration transducers that shake the flooring. My gig is small speakers that sound great. I hobbied speaker construction in the late sixties. One customer had a huge home in the hills above Bezerkeley. A ninety-foot long library. He wanted "live concert" dimension and db. I used thirty-inch diameter ElectroVoice woofers and Voice Of The Theater mid-range horns. He had his existing McIntosh tube type pre-amplifier, final amp and an equalizer with what must have been sixteen slider controls per channel.
He was a happy camper but while proofing the system I think I damaged my hearing. His Shur turntable was located in a heavily insulated closet. His test record was the overture from 2001 a Space Odyssey.
I took the money and ran. My favorite remains bookshelf speakers.
