Does Dynamic Balance Really make a difference?

I know a lot of you own vintage polks and others new ones.
Is Dynamic Balance just a lot of hype?
Can you tell the difference in Polks with DB and those without?

I wish find that differences you mentioned.... But read more about this exclusive technology of Polk and try speakers that have it and not.

It sounds real good on paper though...

I even made a screen name after it...

- While Im sure it does something, I dont think you could hear the difference between it and another non DB spook.

it makes a HUGE difference. It's almost as good as Bose's "Direct/Reflecting" technology.

almost.

I would trust that Polk believes and spec'd the improvement throughly. There are some manufacturers that publish this information in "white papers" and some that do not. I don't think the white paper on the Dynamic Balanced theory has been "de-classified" per se, as it's still a current selling point and proprietary.

Whether an individual, as in subjective comparison, would be able to tell the difference sonically, is simply a matter of opinion.

I happen to own some Dynamic Balance sneakers. They feel real good.
