A while back, just after the AK-Fest we hand a conversation about the new center channel speaker. I found this announcement and thought someone might be interested. Out of my range at (MSRP: $6,000), but it's fun to dream.

For ultimate-quality sonic performance, the XCS200 features two McIntosh 8-inch LD/HP woofers mounted behind a custom baffle housing a multi-driver line array. Eight 2-inch titanium midrange drivers using neo-radial technology and five ¾-inch titanium dome tweeter drivers, arranged in a quasi-point source array, combine to offer truly exceptional dispersion, midrange clarity and very low distortion. The low moving mass of the tweeter elements helps extend system response to 45 kHz.
