Thanks for sharing. A nice review, but one fact that needs to be corrected. While the Diamond Dome is the same as the outgoing series, everything else about the tweeter has been changed (enclosure, motor, suspension, etc.)

Best Regards,

The article was published by an Australian so I assume it's AUS currency rather than USD.

Hi dcanlas,

In Australia that price is correct. $22,000 US.

Thanks Patrick!

How I wish that B&W would have some kind of trade up policy!

Wow that is a huge price gap with our CAD, which is literally on par with the Aussie!
