Because of its horn loading, the Klipschorn had minimal diaphragm movement and, thus, minimal "FM Distortion." It's not clear whether anyone was ever able to hear that or not. Anyhow, Paul doesn't talk about it anymore since he sells other (more conventional) types of speakers. I will say that the Klipschorn was mighty clean sounding. But so are many systems of conventional design which break up the spectrum into 2,3, or 4 bands. I have also heard some swell sounding one cone speakers. And the Bose is not noted for distortion either. -- "It's the thought, if any, that counts!" Dick Grantges hound!rfg
