[QUOTE="Avian, post: 1086211, member: 19252"] I hear you on DIY, but I'm going to take some time exploring my options before making a decision about that. I'm not sure I follow you 100% on your last sentence. "choice between CD and controlled directivity..." The Klipsch I had was a CD with waveguide design, thus having both a CD and good directivity via the waveguide. Also, as long as the off axis response is good and you treat the room correctly with diffusion / absorption, the directivity becomes way less important right? I know it's great to minimize ceiling reflections and "aiming" the sound requires less acoustical consideration, but that's the whole point of my question - to find a well designed speaker (I know DIY one can do that, but I'm not quite there yet). So even a dome tweeter design can be a good design. Or am I missing the point your making a little bit here? [/QUOTE]
