The PS Audio FR30 loudspeakers have a separable top and bottom cabinet. Why is that?

The question was about the groove in-between the two woofers on the front baffle of the bottom cabinet. I would also like to know 👍🏻🔈

Paul and his team have done an exceptional job with the FR30 it seems. One reputable online review said they are easily the best sounding speakers under $30k. 'A bargain'

Another reason - Chris said (in the lunch with Paul video) that the lower woofer box needs to be extremely rigid and tweeter box needs to flex to effectively manage resonances. This separation / design helps achieve that.

Ps audio has effectively built a modular cabinet so now the hf could be changed as required. If the whole cabinet is put into sections as well then the sky's the limit. You could swap drivers and internal x-overs without actually rebuilding or re-designing the whole assembly. Paul-you can have my idea if you wish. Let's hope the amps become modular sometime as well. Again suggested by me by email Ain't I smart😄😄 Not really!

Having the bass speakers in one chamber separated from the tweeters is always a good thing, so that's another fine explanation actually.

I am still dreaming about the FR10 bookshelf size PS Audio speaker that can serve me on my desk or stands with magnificent ribbon performance and supported by some some matched subwoofer that I can place in the optimal acoustical position making the system sound awesome down to the lowest notes without the huge placement restrictions of the FR30.

Most of Wilson Audio products have discrete chambers / modules for sonic qualities. While there are packaging implications for everything that needs to be shipped, in this case it’s very odd to point out that it was the primary reason. Love Paul however this one was a bit cringe.

@@Tobester_McDonkey thank you for showing your cards. You just dug yourself even bigger hole. So you question me on not hearing the speaker and now you admit that you've never heard it but yet you're going off of reviews? That's comical. It's not just 28hz. Its 28hz -6db. Do you even know what this means? I'll let you learn something, go look it up online. You don't even know what you're talking about. If someone is paying $30,000, essentially the price of a car for a pair of speakers the specifications better impress. Paul's Chinese made 30k speakers don't. Legacy Audio makes the Focus XD for half the price of Paul's speaker and measures -2db to 18hz! Now that's impressive engineering.
