Since then, he has started a full lineup :
- BA lineup
- Bali (350€)- a 3 way 3 drivers - which was my first listen and I was mightily impressed at how coherent and fun the Bali was.
- Jaws (750€) - a 3 way 5 drivers - has been improved and is now Jaws II.
- Noosa (990€) - a 4 way 11 drivers
- Mavericks (TBD) - a 4 way 7 drivers
- Hybrid
- Mundaka (850€) - a 3 way 4 drivers featuring a DD, a full range BA and 2 EST
- Some other exciting stuff is coming as well I'll keep this thread updated
