Post Subject: Relevance to audioPosted by guy sergeant on: 7/31/2007
I'm not sure what relevance the purpose something was created for has to whether it can be used in a serious audio  system. As you point out elsewhere there are many products created which are supposedly for serious audio use which are thoroughly unsuitable for that purpose. There are others, like for example the laboratory isolation table you linked to a couple of weeks ago, or the honeycomb material Aerolam, which can have audio applications even if they weren't intended.  It depends more on the objectives of the end user than the creator of the item. The point is that interesting things can arise from the unlikeliest of places intended or not.

Many things, including TAD tweeters, might find a use in an audio system. With their supposed bandwidth they might also have a use in scaring away the cats that crap in my garden if I decide to apply them in that way! I'm sure they weren't designed for that either.
