more expensive drivers that go into more expensive speakers, what you
are paying for is consistency - quality control in other words.


I don't think the 'names' are likely to risk alienating future loyalty
with duff drivers and poor QC - modern speaker cabinets are
automatically churned out to perfection like kitchen cabinet drawers
these days and the people who fit the drivers are almost certainly
quite capable of building the computers we're on right now!


Depends on the 'names' you haven't given I guess. However if you look at
measurements where *both* speakers in a 'pair' have been checked you will
see it is quite common for the two to differ by easily measurable amounts.
Certainly enough to affect imaging *if* all else in the listening situation
was excellent.
