HD is only a current hot marketing word.

I can remember when everything was marketed as "Turbo"

including one goat belonging to a PSW LAB moderator ;-).

They were just drinking buddies... Turbo was full-time with Martin Hackworth, a physics prof. at U of Idaho. Turbo's time on earth has passed, however.

BTW, I, too, made the assumption that Turbo 'belonged' to the mod in question....

Have fun, good luck.

I wonder if they will provide measured phase responses- or just talk about it.

Of course measurements would be better, but they would probably confuse the masses and there is no smoothing or the like to make people feel better. Plus, then they might get asked for phase response for other cabs :roll: . I just checked their site and I think I get the 'surprisingly digital reference'. It seems like they are calling it 'ExtremeD' ...

In either case it would be fun to do a quick comparison of the recent SOS products at the May Expo. I've yet to A/B the new stuff to my existing 'suprisingly analogue' SOS inventory but I know at some point I'll make the switch. I'd love to see a semi-pro line with speakers that play nicely together (Especially a mini and medium sub that could be used together without destructive interference, but that's more of a design issue than clever FIR filtering). I'm all about trying to build a small SOS inventory that can cover the maximum variety of events, but I do more varied production work than the R&R guys here.
