Hey Neg!
It has been a while.
I wouldn't say the NFS actually speeds up the design process, a single scan takes about 6 hours on average and I have the NFS running nearly continuously these days. What it has done, and I know you can appreciate this, it has revitalized my passion for engineering and given me deeper insight as to being able to capture and describe what we hear using measurements.
Take care!

Have you ever heard or seen an LX woofer?

Are you the same person who continues making statements on other forums that we are using "midrange" drivers as woofers? (assuming you mean woofers designed for low frequency reproduction)
If that is you, you couldn't be any more wrong so please, just stop. I do hope you have some knowledge of transducer design in order to make such a bold statement, because cone diameter is not what determines the frequency bandwidth of a woofer.
A larger cone diameter can move air more efficiently than a smaller cone, but there are many other factors involved, such as excursion in combination with force, and our LX woofers have greater excursion and generate more force than most 7-8" woofers. In addition, they have the advantage of requiring less internal cabinet volume to reach the same low frequencies as well as having better directivity due to the smaller cone.
Sure, we could have went with 8" woofers, and gained a bit more overall efficiency, but the cabinet would be twice the size and as such, cost a ton more both in manufacturing and in shipping for the only benefit of having maybe 3dB higher sensitivity? Worth it? Not in my professional opinion...
Yes I am, but it was only 1 forum and 2 post asking that (I already said in that place that I was the guy), in your website I can see the tower that I skiped. it's called '' SIERRA TOWER PAIR '' which use these 5.25'' woofers that i'm talking about
Someone corrected me before of you, he said this tower use a 6'' which is much better imho, I thinked the new tower are also going to use 5.25'', that the reason why i called them as ''mid ranges''.
which is great to know that you are using a 6'' woofer at least, also a guy here posted a video showing the extra long-stroke, which is nice.
I aggre in your point of view, that being said you could use a 6.5'' / 7'', not a 8''. But at least these size woofer PLUS the long stroke would be extra nice, is a bit underwhelming if you have a very nice woofer but you nerf the size of the woofer in order to make the tower '' extra very slim/small '', there is a point when 20% more size doesn't matter, what really matter if the tower will make a bass that you will not miss a subwoofer.
a 6'' midrange plus dual 7'' would be super extra nice in the costumer point of view. It's not necessary a 8''.
Just an opinion. I find very interesting the new tower with 6'' though. I thinked was the same idea because the mid range has the same size of the woofers, like the SIERRA TOWER PAIR, but that speaker is using 5.25'' mid range plus dual 5.25'' woofers, instead of 6'' mid range plus dual 6'' woofers from the new speaker.
What I'm trying to explain, is if a 6'' woofer can be equivalent to a 8'', make the woofer 6.5'' so you can take the advantage.
Looking forward to the new series, very interesting.
Thank you.
