Not what oh where was I going with that. Ah, not watched the video, but it has the smell of being these drivers I posted this about on AAC a couple of weeks back:
Quite hard to work out what this is even for, let alone exactly how it works (I guess that’s what happens when you sit down with the “vice president of marketing and business development”
. [that was for the article on their site, down to the unwanted emoji conversion]
Appears the speakers are really just earbud drivers and the 140dB only applies to that configuration, and they work by creating an ultrasonic resonance in chamber(s) which is then gated to provide net gas flow. They are a gas pump with controllable direction and flow. I guess crossover distortion would be a challenge, perhaps it uses phase shift at low levels to clean that up.
Nifty, but unobtanium for mere mortals.
