Joe evolved his designs like any good engineer. A lot of people have pointed and said your design isn't like Joe's but I ask to which of his designs do you refer? Do you have a definitive choice? If it's his approach you are talking of then ours has a lot in common.
The Troubadour is the successor to the Minstrel. As for the Royd "sound" I was heartened when a lot of Minstrel owners felt the similarity, one going so far as to say it was like stepping back into his lounge when he heard them at Whittlebury, albeit a lounge with noisy neighbours and 10 other people sat next to him!
As for the Flat Earth monika, I'll take it as a positive endearing term irrespective of its origins.
My comment was aimed at the article . Not you . Nevertheless .
You confuse me .
You have retained the ministrel shape . but since when did a wooden box determined the sound of a speaker .
Royd speakers got their sound [ it seems to me ] from Joe' ear and his perference for tuning by ear not measurement , his use of silk dome tweeters and the delpoyment of doping the mid/bass cone in preference to passive electronic filtering .
According to article , alas Joe's ear isnt available to anyone , but the rest of the techniques are .
