Got access to a Klippel NFS and ran a cheap £30 5″ paper driver out of curiosity. Honestly? The on-axis is clean and the directivity is better controlled than a famous driver costing 4× as much.

Marketing is a hell of a drug. Data inside.

This is why we measure. Price correlates with marketing budget, not always performance.
