This is Chris Poland (OHM) test driving the new Eminence FDM speakers at the 2010 NAMM show. I was in the room when this video was shot (that brief flash of an orange shirt at the 4:19 mark is me). This video is about a month old but I just found it.

Rich, what amp was he using? Really nice tone.

I don't recall the amp, but this new speaker has a lot to do with it. It has a big knob on the back to change the attenuation. It's all mechanical. They had a few of them hooked up at preset levels, and Chris would switch between them while he was playing. Later in the vid you'll see where the Eminence guy brings one out to show Chris how it works.

When those $800 Fluxtone speakers came out, I told two different audio/elect engineers about them. Both engineers responded that it would be way simpler and cheaper to design a way of physically widening or narrowing the magnet config.
And that's what Eminence did.
