All Canadians (and their products) are raised on hockey pucks.

Except for babies, the pucks are for teething.

I also found the best effect occurred with the $2 Canadian Tire pucks and not so much with the $8 NHL Official logo pucks. Only in Canada can the wisdom of choosing the correct hockey puck for creating just the right sound be found on a web board full of audiophiles. All this and Tim Hortons.

You could look at the Hsu VTF 3 MK3 with real wood veneer.
Except that it is now side firing... The VTF2-MK3 is still bottom firing though..

Is there any one out there that still makes down firing subs? I think some of the smaller eD subs are but the larger ones are front firing except of course the behemoth A7-700.
I really like my PB 13 Ultra smaller than the EP600/800 and as much output as just about anyone one would ever need.

Although they are designed primarily from the HSU platform, the "Outlaw" series of subs are primarily down-firing and have similar features though at somewhat less cost than the HSU's. I have the LFM-1 Plus in my system of multiple subs and it has excellent build quality and sounds great.

Wonder why everyone is moving away from the down firing subs? They used to be all the rage. Oh well, time marches on I guess.

Have any of you guys seen or heard of these Linear Array Transducers(LAT) made by Tymphany? See the writeup as to how they work, it's quite interesting; they use several smaller diaphragms with two opposing end motors in a very small package, just a few inches and are claimed to be comparable to dual 8", 10", or dual 12" depending on the model. Kewell!! check'em out.
