Nakamichi, New vs. Old?

Paper / poly isn't quite that simple.  There was a good discussion on this recently at diyaudio.com, I'll try to track it down if I have time later.

I think in the end the right material might depend on your listening habits.  Do you crank the volume often?  How on-axis will your midrange cone and tweeter be?  Do you value cleaner sound at higher volumes or smoother sound at lower volumes?  How large of a bandwidth are you asking the speaker to play?

My understanding of the primary differences that CAN exist between paper / poly  is this:

1)  Paper - distort sooner due to the material not being as rigid, but has smoother / not extreme break up modes

2)  Poly - harder material doesn't distort as easily when pushed, but has more extreme break up modes

DYohn, Haemphyst, Steven, is this broad generalization correct?  Have I identified the main issues?

So, what was your conclusion on the breakup issue? 

I asked because I have always respected Nak as producing wonderful decks and so so amps. I have yet to associate their speakers the same. This is not to say that those speakers will sound bad by any means, but using a speaker that you can listen to is very important.

I have listened to a limited number of nak speakers, but they were never particularly impressive.

I wonder if your motives for these speakers is to match the rest of system?
