    If you'd asked I would've sent you that link about 4 years ago.

    Get the new Stereofool magazine. Great Villchur/Allison interview. A highlight is learning that Villchur offered the acoustic suspension design to both Altec-Lansing and Bozak. They both balked, and within 10 years, Villchur had a speaker company with a 30% market share! Freakin' Altec told him,"Gosh Ed, we have a lot of talented guys here. If there was anything to this acoustic suspension stuff they would've been onto it."

    Bozak? Nice response...."What you're attempting is impossible."

    30% market share!
