i mina ögon ser ut att vara aluprofiler men jag är ingen expert på området
De på 1.7 är av aluminium, nästan identiska med profil till övergångar i golv. De på 3.7 och 20.7 är betydligt tjockare och skulle kosta en bra slant om de vore av solid aluminium! Aluminiumskickt på något träaktigt gisar jag att det är.
Kan lugna Nattlorden med att det funnits kommentarer om hur stabila bafflarna blivit med aluminiumprofilerna. Blir förståss lite antiklimax om det skulle vara t.ex. med aluminiumfolie.
Satt och läste om 3.7 vs 3.7i på ett annat forum och såg detta vilket kanske kan förklare vad listerna är gjorda av;
"If yours are the aluminum frame I would be extra concerned about shipping. I had a buddy get his smashed up while being shipped to him. We were able to look a little closer at the torn open speakers and the aluminum frame is basically just a thin wrap of aluminum around an mdf board. The wooden frame option is actually hardwood which the screws go into rather than mdf.
Hittade också en jämförelse mellan 3.7 och 3.7i som beskriver skillnaden ungefär på samma sätt som Häggis;
"I had the opportunity to compare the 3.7 and 3.7i for an arvo at a mate's place in a system much like my own so was easy to spot the differences. He also has Mye stands so we could compare those and the Sound Anchors.
The changes between the original 3.7 and upgraded panels and the change with adding stands was essentially different in nature.
The change from 3.7 to 3.7i we agreed was primarily a balance shift with additional fullness in the mid bass to lower mids which made for a slightly richer sound overall and moved the weight a bit more towards the overall 20.7 balance.
The addition of stands for the 3.7 didn't so much shift the tonal balance in the mid bass to mid range but rather made resolution/focus/clarity/agility gains overall and also some additional extension down lower. The stands also make possible the use of isolation footers which can take you further down the resolution and speed route.
Both benefits seem valuable so possibly it comes down to whether you feel like you need a richer presentation (3.7i) or a faster more resolved one (stands and mechanical isolation) while keeping the balance fairly largely similar with more extension down lower tho if your running subs this might be less an issue."

Wendell made no mention or claims of such improvements whatsoever. He hinted that any detectable change would be subtle at best.
Perhaps the dealer was describing the 20.7's. "
