What is the difference between Tectonic loudspeakers and other flat-format speaker systems?

Traditional loudspeakers “pump” while DMLs “radiate.” The fundamental difference is that all other flat panel speaker systems use uniform pistonic behavior; usually a ribbon, conical or an electrostatic driver.

There are many benefits from DML applications, besides a flat form-factor, including high-resistance to microphone feedback, very low distortion, higher relative acoustic efficiencies, low drop-off front to back, and more.

DMLs are not like any other flat panel technology on the market—don’t let the slim form factor of other speakers fool you.
