The Germans make great cars, doesn't look like they do so well with speakers.

The Euro's do not consider the speaker the most important part of the system, they generally feel the source is dominant. Yeesh, what happened to those speakers, they look like drivers "shrunk" or am I seeing things.

I had a chemistry professor whose eyes looked just like the (correction: "upper mid range") tweets! He was German, too!
This means something..........

Here's a link to some info. Ironically, the picture on this site is the same as the one you posted:

Kabuki Time!
Actually James, I bet the network is very simple. I'd be willing to bet the woofer is running open (its full bandwith), and the tweets and mids are paralleled or in series (or a combo with each other) with a simple cap inline on the postive wire.
Cheers,

Aww crap, I figured with their love of math they'd be running cascading arrays all around...

I didn't even see that it had an EV woofer. That alone may be worth the purchase price (depending on what that is).
Made in Germany - if the mid/tweets are Telefunken, they may bring a little coin also.
Cheers,
Russ
