I love watching Ask Paul because you genuinely bring to the table a sense of who you are as a person without any pretense. I’m sure losing Arnie has been tough at a personal level; not to mention the challenge of losing his input in the midst of product development. I’m proud that you are choosing to move forward to cement his legacy. Alas, I can’t afford any of your equipment; but, that doesn’t mean I can’t live vicariously through your videos!

Arnie's creations were unique and special. He made a huge impression in the industry hence the reason why Infinity had such a huge following. Its important that people remember where the products came from and who designed them, so that they dont get things confused with the (now) Harman owned Infinity. I cant even imagine how difficult it was to come up with new designs and concepts while still managing the "business & finances" which in itself, is a struggle. Thank you for the videos, Paul. Keep Arnie's legacy alive, we're listening.

Fascinating. I'm very sorry about Arnie's unexpected passing. I don't own any PS Audio gear and those speaker price ranges are a little higher than I have so far planned to spend, but I am eager to hear them when they are available. Never say "never" when it comes to HiFi. I may hear the middle-priced offering and be unable to sleep until I have a way to get them. Based on your description of the goals for your new speakers, they sound like they may well be the best speakers ever made for use in a home.

It is sad that we are losing these great designers like Arnie Nudell and Jim Thiel and others, who's contribution to our hobby is timeless. I remember owning a set of Infinity Kappa Speakers and a set of Magnepans. It is so good that guys like you Paul, Jim Winey, Richard Vandersteen, Gayle Martin Sanders and Ron Logan Sutherland, Nelson Pass and Bob Carver are still alive and are taking the current technology to new levels. It is truly amazing that Audio Research still has one guy that listens to every piece of equipment before it goes out and will veto anything that doesn't sound right to him and the reputation McIntosh has built as a company. The up and coming Prima Luna is a rising star in the Audiophile world. I wish you and your company great success and I hope that your speaker line is highly successful and please keep us informed when the speakers are released. This is truly a great time to be an Audiophile.

I'm older now and over the years I have learned quite a bit about the engineering of loudspeakers as this simple device is far from simple. One of the best educations I received was at the Winter CES show in Orlando. Off the main floor there were additional rooms with gear being demonstrated and as a progressed down the hall with all the TV demos and video games, I heard a live grand piano in a room up ahead. For a break I ducked into the room an a black ebony Yamaha Grand Piano was at the far end of the room, but nobody was seated at it. So I walked up to see the player piano. There next to the piano on the floor were 2 3 way acoustic suspension speakers. Having never before been fooled by a sound system, I found out as much as I could about the system. The engineer switched off the system and proceeded to demonstrate one often overlooked component of a speaker, the cabinet. I was invited to knock on the cabinet. I did and found it was solid cement. It did not drum at all. Sounded about the same as knocking on the sidewalk outside. The face of the speaker with the 3 drivers was also solid cement, but contoured into each driver for no sharp transitions from the cone to a flat face. This was an extension of the cone, much like a short horn for each driver. I have not been fooled since by any sound system. The reason for the 3 drivers instead of a planar or multi-driver mid, is the same reason we don't use diffraction gratings in our windows. The multiple sources of the same signal produce double slit or diffraction grating interference patterns in the sound, even though they are better at producing high SPL. Phased array drivers are OK for rock concerts where dispersion patterns must be controlled and you remain in your seat, but are not realistic for a walk though the room. The piano music fully convinced me it was live, even after entering the room, crossing it, and walking up the the piano to see the player piano. It wasn't a player piano. Due to the demo, and a budget, I have a more modest system comprising of a pair of acoustic suspension 3 way speakers with Ber ilium dome midrange and tweeters. It is not nearly as heavy as the concrete speakers, but much more reasonable on my budget and shipping costs. They have held up well over the years with no driver failures. I run them on a vintage receivers with 0.003% THD and SN ratio in excess of 130 DB. Most modern stuff is mass produced and nowhere the quality, with the exception of some high end manufactures. When ever I take friends to a music store to audition systems, most salesmen have no clue what I am up to when I ask the system be shut off. Only after one or two pairs are picked out from the knock test are they auditioned with program material. Some stereo stores don't have any speakers that can pass the knock test. Their salesmen don't like me very well. Those with passing speakers appreciate someone who understands the differences. The cheap speakers never pass. Preferred audition material includes Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. Not the re-mastered CD, the Mobile Fidelity Labs release.

Paul, I have just found your KZbin channel by chance, and wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your videos. I heard about Arnie Nudell's passing, but did not realize till now that he was a good friend of yours. I am truly sorry to hear about his death, and my condolences to you as his friend. He definitely was ahead of his time as far as speaker design and quality. Wishing you great success in continuing his work on Infinity designs. I purchased a pair of Infinity Kappa 8's back in 1989, and have been my prized possessions since then. It is just this past year that I had to re-edge the woofers since the foam edge surround have completely disintegrated from age, and having done that, they are back to as good as new, and continue in providing beautiful music. I was wondering what your opinion is or was about those speakers, if you ever sold them back when they were popular. Again, sorry for your loss, and to in effect to ALL our loss in missing Arnie and his genius.

I just finished making a pair of home hacked (3" coaxial driver + woofer semi omni speakers) and they are the best speakers I have ever made. The "tweeter" is a stripped down 1.5" micro FR driver (with no cone) and a very thin bamboo stick is super glued to the voice coil tube of the micro FR driver, and the stick pokes through a hole (drilled through another larger 3" FR driver) and the frame of the mico FR driver is hot glued to the back of the 3" FR driver (with the stick inserted into the hole). And a thin 1/4" foil "tizzer" is super glued to the other end of the stick that is just poking through the front of the hole in the 3" FR driver (just above the start of the 3" cone). It's a coaxial driver and it's "time aligned" for point source sound! And that's the only purpose of doing it like that. And to keep it time aligned I covered up any holes in the mico FR driver frame to stop any residual sound coming from the driver itself. I also run the 3" drivers slightly above the speaker enclosure hole, with a 4" polypipe tube going down into the box (to clear up med and also acts as a bass vent for the 3" coaxial driver) and the outside part of the 4" polypipe is also a mount for the 3" driver (in a slanted position). And I run it with an extra woofer below (also slanted). The 3" driver being ran above the hole helps clear up resonances (if it's done right that is) and boosts treble and sweetens the voice sound and some of the sound escapes through the gap and goes behind the box (and is less "muffly" from behind). But the size of the gap between the driver and the speaker box hole is incredibly critical! Move the 3" driver inwards by 1 mm and you get a "squarky" loud voice tone and move it 1mm out and you get a soft "husky" voice sound (with not enough "squark"). And "in between" is the best position for sound, but you have to have the gap withing 1 mm up or down. lol And the gap is way larger on the top of the driver, than the bottom. It's angled above the hole to get a variation in resonances cos of the odd slanted geometry. The gap is just a bit more than 1/4" on the bottom of the driver and about 5/8th" gap on the top of the 3" driver. But that only for that particular enclosure, for any other enclosure it would be a different gap. Hard to do but you can move a driver up&down way quicker than changing the crossover. They are also semi omni style speaker boxes with the drivers angled at like 40 degrees, with inverted pyramids above the drivers that act as dispersing "horns". The woofer has inductors set up for 3-way (cos it is) and all the signal is put through the 3" driver except the lower bass, which is handled by the extra woofer. Also the 3" driver is slightly resisted and it is "tizzed off" with a small value cap in par'l with the resistor. And the "super tweeter" in the center has a 1 mf cap (very important to have a cap on it cos otherwise you will have a dancing tizzer)! It's made from a micro FR driver, and moves without a small value cap on it. They are the best speakers I have ever had and I plan to sell the coaxial drivers by themselves) (and with a 1 mf ceramic cap on the "super tweeter"). I'm planning to make them from 3" to 5" diam (best med size). The med is sweet cos of the small driver and treble has way better transients at high frequencies cos the stick and tiny tizzer is way lighter than the 3" cone (and point source "headphones effect" to boot). Also you don't have to run them above the speaker box hole (I just do, cos it's my style).

Yeah, but why the insistence on line arrays for home audio? Placing tweeters and domes in a line array isn't accurate sound. The drivers can never be close enough to avoid comb filtering. Speakers designed to sound live are using tricks to sound live. It's not accurate sound. The problem with these speakers is I'd probably love them for some listening situations and content but not all. Point source speakers with a rear firing tweeter one can turn on or off to one's preference is the direction I'd go. Paul, I'd love to buy a speaker if you could incorporate accuracy and live effects I could control.

Paul, Sorry to hear of the passing of your partner Arnie. A young budding and passionate piano player wanted to purchase something she could carry with her to play in public. To finance her purchase, she sold her cherished upright grand piano. She purchased a fantastic electric stage piano that had many world renowned acoustic pianos digitized into it. What she wasn't aware of was that her new instrument was very good at putting an amazing sound into one end of a wire. Getting that signal out of the other end of the wire and making it into what she wanted people to hear was something entirely different. And apparently, someone else's job. When I talked to her, she felt that she had made the worst decision in her life. She was crying. I think that if she ever gets to play in a large venue, she would depend on house amplification and speakers. But what about at home or about playing in a small venue where she has to provide her own amplification? What would you have to say to her?
