Cnet has a very interesting article on some interesting speakers
designed by Kevin Nelson, a currently homeless man. He had planned to
show them at CES, but life got in the way.

He claims that just one of his speakers can project a stereo image,
but two is even better.

Sounds like something here in Chicago. An early version of such a
speaker was demonstrated at the
local AES meeting. When we went there to ;the store, the protoype
speakers had the crossovers hanging out,etc,
and the concept seemed to make a poor stereo image. The consultant to
the store owner was one of
the original AR speaker designers. I think he had a patent on the
speakers that shot out the side of the box.
That was at least 5 years ago. Here is the link to the current
version which is called the quartet. The box
looks highly improved over the original version, not having parallel
sides..

And Mark Levinson used hawking beads and
bracelets in Harvard Square way back when.

Sorry, that was supposed to read "used to hawk".

Yeah, well. I wondered what Mr. Hawking would have had to say about
being used like that.

I had a look at the Quartet but see nothing that resembles my ZAL36T
Condo Series Loudspeakers none the less they are a good looking
speaker I wish him the best

Nothing notable about the interspeaker connection, something used in
old Polk speaker, the M.A.R.S. arrangement, iirc. Also, the use of
first-order crossovers in an MTM would seem to disqualify it from
being called a d'Appolito configuration. Otherwise, nice but pretty
standard stuff.
