Factory tour videos

[eddantes]

I really enjoy these factory tour videos, and I thought someone here might too. Here's Eminence factory tour.

Certainly more "factory" than artisan (and obviously less fancy-pants than that B&W video I saw here recently), but very interesting and well done!

Enjoy.

Also - please post links to other "audio" factory tours. They are lots of fun!

Ooof - that Accuphase room with the B&Ws certainly looks rather "live" ....

which video and time stamp you referring to?

Hmmm... on second look - there are bass traps and a carpet - so perhaps an over-reaction

Wow! Talk about vertically intergrated! I'm surprised they didnt show the Philips sand quarry!

Being an OEM provider, I expect nothing else. Imagine any of those brands, if they had to contend with the sort of nonsense Grado pulls for example..

Making a speaker destined for example a professional industry, and telling your customers "don't worry about measurements, we use something better, our own ears, so forget about exact distortion, and frequency response guidelines you sent us, we'll tell you what's really good".

I'm gonna call out the bricks as diffraction devices.

They need a Golden Retriever on the rug to help dampen some.

Here's an interesting JTR Speaker Factory tour

Sennheiser Tour by Linus. It's interesting that they customize the stations for each worker assembling headphones to maximize efficiency.

Here's a tour of Axiom speakers. A bit messy aint it? Love the anechoic chamber and the 100ft tower though
