This isn't a bad ideal. Many companies do the same thing - but they:
- do real research and testing

Agreed.

- pay more than $20-$30 for their drivers

Surprisingly, mostly wrong when it comest o consumer speaker drivers. More
accurately stated: They buy their drivers in big enough quantities that
$20-30 gets them just about *anything they want*.

- sell them for reasonable markups.

Agreed.

If one agrees with your first statement, then one would have to
disagree with the second, since there are plenty of 2 way speakers for
$1600 or more (or 3 way speakers for $1800 or more) UNLESS you
stipulate that Greg's markup is ALSO reasonable.

One only has to look at Bugtussel as an example.
