I’m wondering. Are those waterfalls basically anechoic?
Did someone mention great looks?If I were spending $30k for a pair of speakers they would need to look great as well as sound great. I realize that’s likely THE most subjective aspect of the choice, but one I could not ignore.
UGH! It looks like a plumber made them. Not too bad although not acceptable.Did someone mention great looks?
I'll show myself out.
It's like spiders observing!
They look like something I would have drawn when I was 12.
10/10 on the WAF scale!Did someone mention great looks?

Fixed it for you.10/10 on the WTF scale!
Yeah seriously. Treat the room first with what you already have.
I think the thing with these controlled directivity speakers is that people are applying them as the next best thing when they cannot treat the room for various reasons. They will do better but not as well as properly treating the room. It’s all a compromise and these are not magic
If the directivity isn't uniform, either the listening window, early reflections or sound power will have coloration and that can be perceived by the listener
Comparing Hi-Fi news with Erin.
These may have already been listed above:
Active- ATC 50s or 100s,
Passives- Stenheim, Vimberg, Borresen,
No clue how they measure but I have heard them all
along with many others. My ears chose these.
You can forget Borresen with only 30k.These may have already been listed above:

Lol, that's because Vimberg is Tidal's "budget" line!Timberg looks like a Tidal speakers, very similar.

What do they have that cost so much? Bookshelf speakers for almost 100,000 Euro, with a bandwidth starting from 40 Hz, and probably with a decrease?
