Not saying these are not better than most, but too little is said here of objectives, and too much is made of the "quality" of the bits and pieces, themselves, IMO. And servo is nothing new, if that's what this is:

AFAIK, no one with the machinery to do it (all 2 of them...) is making really good cones today, since no one asks for them any more. It looks like a couple of individuals have significant stashes of NOS cones once intended for "Klangfilm", but those are mostly "optimized" for (surprise...) theaters, auditoriums, and stadiums, along with the Kapstan and aluminum VC formers, etc., etc. But then, so many people think of the expensive "commercial" drivers and speakers as being something to lust after, and why not capitalize on this niche market, since it is - obviously - bigger (or at least more lucrative) than the market for evolved Music appreciation from recordings in the home.
Is this the same guy who was earlier stuck on the "heritage"/"tribute" systems?
If this post tinged with bitterness, I am quite jealous of his frames and machining/manufacturing capabilities! It certainly looks like he "could" do it...
