With the omnidirectivety paranoia many people might loose from attention that fact that in order to be good omnidirectional speaker the RAAL new speaker has to be just a good conventional speaker first. The new RAAL speaker (does it have a name?) as I can see is 3 way design with very restricted back chambers at MF and LF. The selection of the drivers MF and LF to work in this condition and the way how Alex used them is very interesting subject. I do not think that Alex shell be talking about it to listen if the result is appealing shell be very educational.

There is one interesting point in the new RAAL even regarding the omnidirectivety. All omnidirectional speakers I have seen had omnidirectional higher frequency range. RAAL is omnidirectional full-range. It shell produces very different result and I do not know which one. It might be also very interning idea to turn on and off (or even to using in back-phase) the back/side firing HF and MF drivers, letting the dispersion diagram of the speaker to “read” the room. I can see a remote control that would allow resetting the individual drivers in the new RAAL speaker, while the speaker is playing…

Do you what more fantasies? How about this “remote control” automatically and dynamically complies with the delta of stereo separation that sent to right and left loudspeaker. This idea combined with my idea of RT60 emulator might be a fun direction to play with.  Also it might be interesting to to make a large parabolic reflector, locate them behind or on the side of the new RAAL speakers and to see if it is possible to “spook focus” of the speaker in some atypical way.
