Cool Video. I love the look of the later B&W speakers.

Laboratory grown diamonds are used in pretty much anything "diamond" that isn't jewelry related, like diamond tipped tools.

Yep... they use "grown" diamonds for everything except Jewellery.

The only reason they don't use them for Jewellery is that they can keep the price up that way. Sigh.

And, I've heard them... they sound pretty good

Apparently another manufacturer of drivers Accuton, has been using, either diamonds, corundum, but an equally or just slighly less hard material on the Moh scale.
pretty cool.
