    Congrats!

    I had a feeling you would be going with some new Emmy's. I was unaware of the new models though. Figured it would be the CS1's.

    Yeah, I wasn't allowed to say anything until after the products were released at AK Fest 2009.

    It appears to be a 12" dual concentric pro audio driver with two 15's.

    Dear SS,

    I am wondering if you ever received and tried the latest EP CS2.3?

    How does it look and sound to you? Or has it not arrived yet?

    Any comments would be appreciated.. esp. how it compares to the previous CS2..

    if it is not too troublesome, pls email me at sithkk@gmail.com

    THANKS!

    I chose mahogany I believe because it was the darkest other than black. I'll let you know when they arrive.

    please do give us a mini review of your new 2.3's solid. i joined this forum just so i could reply to this thread! it is damn near IMPOSSIBLE to get any word on the new EP's which i really don't understand. the original cs2's were one of the most talked about speakers ever, now PFFFTTT.... nothing. no reviews, no owners talking, nothing. it's really kinda strange, and not really great marketing IMO. BTW do you know why the DBX is no longer listed as an option on the website?

    Just a guess. But everybody's just now getting them from what I understand. And if there like the CS2's and have the same EXTENSIVE break in period. It might be bit before we start getting reviews from people. Just a guess though..

    I'm sure SS will post his thoughts as soon as he gets some time with them though...



    Welcome to the Forum.

    Hey,

    I've talked to Walter Liederman and Clayton Shaw regarding my CS 2.3s. Evidently Clayton is two weeks behind on production in light of an unexpected demand for these speakers. I should be receiving mine shortly.

    That being said, I won't really be giving any review of these speakers until I give my entire system some break in time. I'm thinking at least 500 hours.

    Welcome to CP.

    Greatings everyone,
    SolidSqual did you get those 2.3s in yet? I had to run over here and enlist since reading Squals' posts for some time now regarding the Physics.

    Thank You

    It's funny whenever you search Emerald Physics, the Polk threads are some of the first to appear on Google. They look like cool speakers, but sadly out of my price range.

    Quit starting conspiracy theories! You buying some Emmys after you sell your SDAs?

    My speakers arrive the 20th. Photos will be posted once I get my system back together and presentable. Shipping was delayed on account that Emerald Physics accidentally shipped my Cullen Ciruits modded Berhringer DCX2496 to the buyer of my traded-in speakers. So whoever that was really acquired a nice windfall. Clayton offered to buy me another DCX with the Cullen mods, but then he offered the alternative of a new DBX processor that auto-EQs the bass with a mic. At first I was reluctant since I was aware Emerald Physics has some trouble with their previous implementation of the DBX processor. Evidently those bugs are not an issue with the higher level processor they are currently using from DBX. At any rate, the new DBX is a $1,200 unit, the same price as a modded DCX more or less. Clayton says the stock DBX will offer the same perofrmance as the modded DCX but with the benefit of a mic to auto calibrate the bass to the room. I'm excited.

    Probably not. I'm trying to scale things back and put some money in the bank.

    I'm leaning towards a pair of Magnepan 1.6's

    Looking good!

    I'll be damned- I would have never thought to mix&match coaxial drivers, but it looks like that's what they did... I'm pretty sure I see a selenium strapped to a eminence.
