Här under följer ett mail från Nick:

Hi Folks,
We designed a new motor assembly this summer to make a sweet lower
cost alternative to our regular drivers. Instead of the thick copper
tube we have the entire steel circuit plated with very thick copper
plating overseas. This copper plating is 1/3 as thick as the copper
tube to give an idea. (This gives alot of the performance of the high
end Lambda at a low end price) Then it is chrome plated on top of
that (you can guess where this design was intended) Well the shipment
was over 2 months late in arriving for various reasons so I have not
said much about it until now. Well some things have changed recently
and I need to move a whole bunch of these really quickly, and am
pricing them to do just that. Here is how it works;
1) You can take any of the driver specs at the website catalog except
the Dipoles and add "LE" to the beginning of the part number.
2) For modeling purposes you need to change the rated Le of the
driver from 0.2mH to 2.0mH, that is all.
3) ALL OTHER SPECS WILL STAY THE SAME GIVE OR TAKE TYPICAL
TOLERANCES
4) These use all the other same parts as our regular drivers, same
cones, voice coils, spiders, cast baskets, fancy rubber trim rings,
rubber magnet boot, gold plated binding posts, PHASE PLUGS, etc.
5) These look and weigh the same as our regular drivers, only
difference is the motor is chrome plated.
6) Even though the xmax is rated at 10mm, independent testing found
16.3 mm linear peak for you xmax nuts
7) Best of all is the PRICE! To move these out quickly;
10" = $79 each
12" = $84 each
15" = $99 each
For example you can get;
LE version of the PB12 for $84
LE version of the TD15X for $99 with PHASE PLUG
Anything in our catalog except for Dipoles can be made LE to these
prices.
Please pass this along everywhere you can, I need to move alot of
these out rather quickly, I need your help in getting the word out.
Best regards
Nick

Jag har redan 4st 
Men hadde jag pengar skulle jag passa på att beställa 3st till för center bakkanal den dagen jag vill ha 5.1
Alltså man kan beställa vilken som helst av deras högtalare i detta utförande!
Förutom Dipole versionen. |

Jeg hadde også bestilt hvis jeg hadde hatt penger akkurat nå. Lambda har jo et veldig rykte, jeg har faktisk aldri sett noen klage på dem. Prisen på de vanlige modellene er vel $259 uansett størrelse. Det er synd at dipolen ikke kan fåes i LE utgave.

Jag bifogar lite intressant info från Nick:
>What will be difference for subwoofer duty between LE (SB) driver and
>regular SB driver? Crossover point will be 50 or 70 Hz. I know if
>things are too good to be true they probably are. What is the catch –

The steel between the LE and the regular drivers is the same.
It is the amount of copper shorting ring that is the only difference.
I prefer as much copper as I can get as I can hear the difference, but
obviously this costs money, and not everybody wants to pay me for an Apollo
design.

>better quality sound?
If you are happy with Vifa over Scanspeak, then you would be happy with the
LE version. That is about the best comparison I can give (Vifa and
Scanspeak are the same pretty much other than the copper ring)
>Another question is about size of drivers. Some people have opinion

>this question already but I like to get low 20th.
>What size of enclosure would you recommend to use driver in counting
>room reinforcement of sound for different driver's sizes?
I like 1~2 feet per 10" 2~4 feet per 12" and 4 feet and larger per 15"
You should fit the largest cabinet possible you can deal with for the best
sound quality.
I find that with our drivers the size didn't matter, and the 15" has the
best midrange if you can believe it. However I know it is an issue with
other driver designs because of various reasons. Most companies seemed to
not really focus on the 15" size unless they were pro sound, and as a
result the large drivers sounded like a--.
