Note that when Toole started employing his blind testing methodology at Harman, good designs (waveguide-loaded tweeters, multiway centers) proliferated and bad designs (flush-mounted tweeters, toppled MTM centers) disappeared from all but the cheapest models, with the end result being that Harman has what I consider the deepest and broadest bench of good speakers right now bar none. Why? One obvious conclusion is that good designs implemented well sound better than bad designs implemented well.

So the upper end of JBL, Infinity, Revel are all some of the better designs? Actually all of Revels centers appear to be the toppled MTM design. Seems to be the same with JBL and Infinity. I'm assuming Harman owns more speakers companies I'm not aware of and maybe I'm not looking at the right models. Can you be more specific? Thanks!
