Hmm. Wonder if that's at the Axiom factory. Kinda looks like it, no?

I honestly haven't been following all this very well...(No sense drooling over speakers for which I don't have the budget nor space, and all that).
But is the Bryston T and the new M100 the same design? Looks like the same driver complement at a quick glance.

But is the Bryston T and the new M100 the same design? Looks like the same driver complement at a quick glance. The Brystons have different woofers. They have a re-worked 8" woofer, and also an improved 5 1/4" woofer as well i think? the work on the Model T's 8" drivers is what spawned the improved 6 1/2 driver for the LFR's is my understanding. Ian has noted that there are differences in the cabinet. I believe that the model T's front baffle is 1 1/2" thick MDF, where the LFR's and i would assume the M100's is 3/4" MDF. the cabniet for the Model T's also have different geometry than the M100's. The M100's use the standard Axiom design. Where the Model T has more compound curves there are subtle differences that can be noticed upon close inspection of photos available online.

First post, I thought I would finally go to the source.
I've asked James Mr "T" on the Circle this question several ways but have not received a completely satisfactory answer. The model T's front baffle is 1.5" thick MDF, BUT the through hole for the midrange looks like a straight cut through the front baffle.
Would a shaping the rear of midrange baffle opening to smoothly transition to the matching plastic midrange enclosure improve the non-linear distortion ???
I noticed this phenomena while testing a much smaller Scan-Speak 10F midrange unit on a standard 3/4" baffle. The 10F did not really sing until I opened up the rear with at least a 30 degree chamfer.
Inquiring minds need to know. Shawn
