Look at these guys. I am intrigued....
They punked the reviewers by hiding them behind a curtain.

I wonder what the reviewers thought they we were listening to.  These could not possibly reproduce much lower than midrange frequencies if they are dipoles like the originals.

They noted in the article that a sub was in the mix.

I would guess 2 subs, as the xover had to be in the 100's of hz, and 1 would have to be next to each panel or system integration would suck.
