If anyone needed more proof Audio Aficionado is on the leading edge of high end audio, this is it. A quick search of the web suggests you've scooped it Dafos. I'd say this new model in the S line is destined to be called S3. The front baffle is wider to accommodate what appears to be twin 8" bass drivers, with a commensurate increase in cabinet volume. Yet the speaker still retains the compact dimensions of the S1 & should be the answer for those customers who have a small - medium size room & want more bottom end oomph. Cool!
