  Jim,

Single driver speaker designs have caught my attention for some time now. Like you, I read all that I could bear on the subject, but there was no getting better than buying a pair seeing what was up. I had to try a couple more to find my taste, but consider the experience wonderful as I enjoy that part of the hobby as much as the rest. Trying to find a good read is the same thing, as so many of them are guided by advertisers, opinions, arrogance, and a few other prejudices. This BH forum is by far the best thing I have found, but wish that there was more. I was reading comments on another site yesterday that quickly came to be a can of worms. Not the kind of thing that I'm looking for. Here, the moderation is just right when things get out of whack. Thanks to all who contribute here, as I find this to be an oasis for the few of us.
 
I have built 2 pair of single driver speaks.  Both pair sound great and both are driven by class A tube amps.

You guys are all into building amps, why not build up some speaks?
 
I just went to The Daily Audiophile, it reminded me of Dagogo.  We had a Bottlehead who wrote for them.  IIRC, he was the one who turned me on to the Black Obbligato Polypropylene film and oil caps.  Still can't come up with the moniker or name.  But I have wanted to credit him many, many times. 

I don't have many original ideas.  I steal, er, borrow from others more often.
 
Grainger,  When I was a young lad, I thought that it would be cool to see a boat use skiis....then I saw one. There is nothing new under the sun.
