Yes, Jonathan,

I have seen this resemblance with JBL in the shape of the back plate but it does not mean anything. The curved back magnetic path make a lot of sense, so he might adopt it from JBL. There is nothing wrong with it.

I do not know what this guy did in this driver. He sent me email stating that I have no knowledge about the field-coil drivers design. Good for me. I hope he does.  What distract me in all of this that all those people is their confidence in own supremacy but this confidence does not based upon any sonic or artistic claim but rather upon self -affiliation with some kind of pre-developed hype or hideous kitsch. I do not make this accusation about this German guy who make those compression drivers – I do not know what he does but the patters is sound too recognizable. I hope I am mistaken.

A few month ago the clown Joe Roberts popped up at this site and was selling an idea of a new Korean loudspeaker by affiliating what those Korean guy do with WE and Mirrophonic.

he was drooling with bitten up stupid audio metaphors but a single look at this WE installation from a perspective of a person who have more or less noble reference points would clearly indicate HOW this  installation sounds.

Another example is that retard from Pennsylvania from Oswald Mill. He piles up stories about RCA of 30s but the actual sound he is getting is sub acceptable and has so many very elemental mistakes that it kind of even shame to comment about it. It is not even about Sound they get and the sound they do not understand but the objectives of those people actions. The Oswald Mill guy is idiot in his audio objective, an idiot in his musical objective and all that he does is just mitigation of damage from people who know him and who have discovered that it is an empty place. Can you blame RCA installation that is does shit in Oswald Mill’s hands?

Well, as in anything else audio is very little about “iron” but more about people and I would very much be incline to pay attention to the statements of people values instead of the moronic the statements  that “we copy this technology from WE, from RCA, from Bell Labs, from Marconi, or from Klangfilm”. As I always say “any technology in the hands of barbarians will produce a barbarian results” and unfortunately too many of the cretins in “vintage audio” prove the point…

I do not know how it all applicable to that Christine Von Langa. It might be not and his driver might be interesting. However, then will be interesting NOT because or instead they are JBL or WE replica but because other reasons. I hope they shut a fuck up their endless drooling about replication of vitals technology. Not to mention that any single “replicator” that I have see NEVER made anything performing identically to vintage results. Different but not the same, if so then what is the difference what the design was taken from?
