Doc B.:
Here's a link to the PDF file of this design's discussion - a prototype product that won best sound of show, but was doomed when the midwoofer chosen for the design went out of production -

I Just spoke with eminence rep today regarding on LA6-MB.  They are thinking about making the spakers again but they don't know when.  They got call about the speaker often.

BNAL:
What is the number. I will give them a call asking for a pair of the LA6-MB. Maybe if Eminence gets enough calls they will put the speakers back into production, or at least a limited run.

A while back(12/7/07) I requested a quote from Eminence for a minimal (100) custom production run of the speaker.  I never did see that quote.

Paul Joppa:
Eminence has usually been pretty open to small production runs (100 units minimum) of custom drivers. In the current economic climate they are probably even more open - assuming they still have the experienced staff necessary.

When the Climax project was dropped, I looked into all that, and tried to find if there was enough interest in the community to justify such an order. I also had in mind some improvements that might add a modest cost but improve performance, such as underhung voice coils and a shorting ring to reduce distortion. At that time it did not appear that we would sell more than 25 or 30 drivers.
