Let's have a look at the front of the AKAI 40J driver, and what you can see through the membrane of the back of the driver (top photo, the next photo).
Square holes (small on this side, larger on the front), in rows.
VS
Round holes, placed in a different pattern.

Looking at your photos of the D50 driver, it appears to have identical square holes on both magnets. Right?
The voice coil on the D50 is nearly (but not completely) identical though.
Yeah, let's see a photo. The only plausible reasons I can think of are the ones Sambones has already flung, or variations thereof. Of course, maybe they ran out of Type 1 magnets and just got in a shipment of Type 1As.

Are there pictures of that? Sounds interesting, but I couldn't find anything via google or wiki.

To get a differently FR'd backwave, to cut down on backwave cancellation? To provide the reflex-dot effect, by having a reflector lined up behind the front holes?
