Yeah they are awesome...I love em!
Oh wow, I didn't mean tapered like that. I can see the pros of having boxes like that, but no I didn't really like them as they are now no, but without that big slanting sides and in a better light those might look good imo.So you like these?
Yeah I like light oak or light walnut too. You have those same tweeters?Oh wow, I didn't mean tapered like that. I can see the pros of having boxes like that, but no I didn't really like them as they are now no, but without that big slanting sides and in a better light those might look good imo.
Instead I mean something like this. Couldn't find any other good example now when I did a fast google so I'll just show you my own speakers, a pair of Ino Audio piP. Not the best finish up close, but I do like the overall look of them.

Yup those are my tweeters.Yeah I like light oak or light walnut too. You have those same tweeters?
Oh those looks quite nice from the front! But the sides doesn't really work for me, but I give them an A for the steampunk effort ^^
@goat76 Hello, nice to see you here!
Of course, this consideration is essentially limited to North America, Europe and parts of Asia as well as Australia [ ... ] even for someone who can save around 500 euros a month, these speakers are within reach.
With you on the Gayas, but I could live with the Nautilus - until the day I trip over the speaker cable and impale myself on those spikes.I've no problem with the high tech look of Wilsons. I think their price/performance level gets
them in trouble with the measurement sensibilities here.
The ones I would never own are the art/deco designs such as Vivid Giva's or the B&W Nautilus. OMG, no thanks.
JMHO
I wouldn't curbside 'em if I had 'em. I'd just deal with the looks and enjoy the sound. Fortunately, that's a decision I'll never have to make due to their stratospheric price.
I live in a country so expensive that the big corporations call it 'Treasure Island.'I live in one of the most expensive countries in Europe and earn a fairly average wage. I am by no means poor or even need to spend money on a car. While I could theoretically set aside €500 a month (if I stopped eating etc.) I would still have to save for nearly five years to buy a pair of KEF Blades at current prices.
This is way beyond what I would consider 'normal' ...
There are designs like this Avalon that will never fit into my home..the only positive point with these speakers is that children naturally move away from them.
