I asked the original question because further research on the web 
confirmed the superiority of the Usher 9950 when compared to the 
equivalent Scanspeak driver and nothing about any pending lawsuits. Now 
I do not dispute that it may be clone, some of the reviewers certainly 
alluded to that. But it is superior driver nonetheless and the fact some 
of the manufacturers who previously used the scanspeak indicated that 
they may move to the Usher because it is a better and accurate driver 
somewhat confirms this fact. I for one am minded to buy the RW 729 cos 
in my limited knowledge of speakers I know of nothing within it's price 
range that comes within a shouting distance of it soundstage and detail 
resolution. In fact, I will go on record as saying that the only speaker 
that impressed me as much as this was the B&W N805 signature and that 
costs much more. the specs give values of 38 Hz - 28 KHz for a 
standmount with low distortion levels, now if that is true it means I 
can enjoy even more of my hirez discs. therefore you pays the money, you 
makes the choice. enjoy the music.

I wrote it to address a previously held impression, Rightly or wrongly I 
see (see link) that you poured cold water on some previous enquiries 
about Usher speakers which you did not correct even when those positions 
were erroneous. It is rather unfortunate that you will critique a 
manufacturer so negatively and not correct that position when it is no 
longer valid. It was simply by chance that I came across these speakers. 
I came across some promotional material from the manufacturer last year 
at the Hi-fi News show in London UK & did not get to hear the speakers 
at all. I consequently listened to the RW - 729 last month and thought 
this babies are something special. It crushed some much more expensive 
speakers (not just scanspeak) that I listened to previously. Now even in 
Italy & the US, some of the models (in US, specifically drivers) are 
acclaimed as brilliant. It seems to me that you never addressed the 
performance of the speakers or drivers in any of your previous posts. 
Should I say that the issue of Scan Speak was not of interest to me at 
the time I heard the speakers, It was your post that brought that it to 
my attention and then I went to do some further research and the other 
reviews validated my initial impressions that these drivers and speakers 
(at their price point) are something special & yes that they look 
similar to the ScanSpeak 9950 (I think). 
edp, it is nothing personal and it is in interest of all members of the 
forum that we form the right impressions based on valid information, 
even though we may sometimes disagree. Here all I am saying is do not 
ignore these speakers, they are BRILLIANT. 
Tongue in cheek, the scanspeaker drivers measurements how do they fare 
against the equivalent usher drivers.

Si chiedo scusa a chi non sa l'inglese.Ma molti costruttori(auto 
costruttori,do it yourself)) lo sanno e ci sono idee interessanti:i 
costruttori utilizzanti Scan stanno valutando di passare ai componenti 
Usher.
A me hanno anche chiesto uno scambio di casse:peccato che devo dare la 
differenza e ovviamente le altre sono molto piu' costose.
