What is the S2?
AS-2 custom which the G-2 is based on.
Heard from Aurisonics yesterday in regards to G2vsG2.5 :
"Hi Rich,
Basically the easiest way to understand the differences between the ASG-2 and the ASG-2.5 is that the ASG-2.5 is just the newest revision of the ASG-2 series. The changes that we made to the ASG-2 to get the ASG-2.5 essentially include a retuning to the sound to improve it a little bit to our standards. We did this by making the overall sound more appealing to high end consumers and audiophiles, while still being desirable for the professional market. We also have a new dynamic driver, which is a little smaller than the previous 15 mm (it is now only 14.2mm) but is a bit smoother and more efficient. They still have the same pair of balanced armature tweeters as well, which will focus greatly on the highs and the lows, while the 14.2 mm driver will still focus on the mids. Additionally, the adjustable bass port will continue to allow you to adjust your low end to get more or less "oomph" in your sound. You will also have the option to choose from a polished black or polished red finish, which is used with a special coating we discovered that will make the monitors more durable in the long run, and much harder to break on the outside. Now all of this information is for the generics, but the same changes went into the design of newer and better customs as well.

Wait... the dynamic handles just the mids and BAs take care of the lows and the highs??
Dynamic does the bass and mids.. BAs do the highs.
They still have the same pair of balanced armature tweeters as well, which will focus greatly on the highs and the lows, while the 14.2 mm driver will still focus on the mids.
