While not shutting out noise as well as noise-cancelling models, the isolation is good enough that I have to be conscious of my surroundings whenever I use them outside, or I could easily get into an accident.”

“Although the crucial aspects of the cabinet construction remain, the tighter physical integration of the tweeter/midrange interface creates a more elegant appearance with the grill cloth on, and a look we are pleased to note also increases the visual similarity between the speaker and the upcoming M7-HPA amplifier. Another improvement was realized by weaving the voice coil leads directly into the spiders of the push-pull subwoofer cones in the powered subwoofer, strengthening the conneciton between the integrated power amplifier and subwoofer, allowing increased linear excursion for even greater bass authority in the subterranean (100Hz and below) frequencies.”

“. It was the rough direct competitor to the AR-2 series. The Seventeen was a 10-inch 2-way in a smaller cabinet, the approximate competitor to AR’s 4 series, although the Seventeen was somewhat larger and more expensive.
