Live-Wall’s newest model features a three-layer design that employs a woven fiberglass diaphragm along with advanced aeronautical adhesives and an asymmetrical star pattern that, Bay Audio says, based on algorithms to eliminate standing waves, delivers a balanced frequency response. The LW1210’s proprietary asymmetrical star pattern dissipates high frequency energy as it propagates toward the edge of the speaker to achieve the most natural and balanced sound. Bay claims that the Live-Wall LW1210 delivers a 160-degree off-axis dispersion and high power handling and it lists for $500 (each).
