Hopefully they will be more visually appealing. Past speakers are flat looking. I have Magnepan speakers so flat looking speakers doesn't really bothers me but may bother some folks out there. Pedrocols, I am digging the new Airmotiv/Stealth look. You have to see them in person. |

No. These Airmotiv 5S's sitting right in front of me do not match any pic I have seen. The faux leather that surrounds the cabinet, the black powder coat on fascia with the cool angles, the yellow ribbons and woven cones with pointed plugs. No, have to see them in person. |

@roryb welcome, fellow Boiler! Class of '86 ChE, developing technology for diapers... Because it pays the bills, is very challenging, and PU helped gel my ability to think in fundamental principles applicable to many fields of engineering. Looking forward to seeing hearing the outcomes of your efforts with Emotiva. Mark Class of '90 IE, GO BOILERS!!! Worked in the audio/video industry for 13 years until China took over completely. Now I deliver drugs (through the medical devices we design and manufacture). We could sure use the full sized big daddy passive speaker line to replace the ERT 8.3's!!!! |

Lot of Purdue guys here I guess.
Its a great engineering school.
I visited the school once for a football game. No offense intended, but that had to be the ugliest campus I've ever seen for a major university.

I continue to hope for a DSP-room-correction controlled stand-alone subwoofer amplifier. Thank you. @roryb can you give us a hint on what your working on ? What David is talking about goes way back with Emotiva. There was a prototype that was two or three separate units. I believe the amp was separate. It was to be pretty awesome. Emotiva has been wanting awesome speakers and subs for a long time and the old timers here have been hanging on waiting for them for a long time. Big Dan has been very good at not settling for just anything. Emotiva fans are right there with him and want gear the outperforms there price. We know it can be done because Dan and Lonnie have been doing it with there other gear. Emotiva is not the joke many made them out to be in the beginning. When they go public I am buying stock !  Sorry, but any "hints" about products in development will need to come directly from Big Dan, or maybe Lonnie. We are deep into some other speaker-related projects, and you're going to love them, but that's all I can say for now. |

It was worth a try @roryb. Sounds like your on the same trip as Dan and we love long strange trips here. I bet you will have a lot fun working at Emotiva and welcome to club !  |

Interesting choice to end your introduction with that last paragraph. Since you brought up Andrew Jones I certainly hope Emotiva has a passive speaker to compete with the ub5. As an owner of the 5S I would love nothing more than to continue with Emotiva since I'm planning to add two new speakers for our home theater system so I'm hoping you're going to outdo the ub5.
