Wow. That's a wall of sound in the making! 26 speakers. Only 574 drivers to go and you'll have this:

Seriously though, they do look like they'd be easy to knock over, perhaps they need a cable to the roof to secure them.

I bet they do sound awesome Keith.

‘Hedd’ is Klaus Heinz’ new loudspeaker venture, formerly Klaus was the founder and chief engineer for Adam loudspeakers.
The Hedd ‘Tower Mains’ are full range studio monitors , they are an all out
‘State of the Art’ design , modular in design, they consist of the main TM80 unit, which is combined with either one or two TMS36 bass units.
Each TMS consist of four 8” drivers in a sealed enclosure.

Pretty sure that would be an 'end game' system.

Would love to hear them.

Keith , having them in the lounge are you now having to sleep in the spare room? Can't see any woman allowing them in the house but I love them.

Bet they sound awesome.

Wife who to be fair has been pretty lenient up to now, has now reached breaking point, I have to sell horns before ‘looming towers’ take up residence , ( frowny face)

Thomas I think they might be right up your street, I haven’t heard such convincing drums, explosive sounds are explosive !

Are they still very excellent with just the bottom two boxes per channel? i.e. one subwoofer box per side?

And what DAC/Pre are you using with them?

 

[Purité Audio]

They are most excellent with just 8x8” bass drivers!
I suspect for most rooms at ‘normal’ volume the one module will be more than enough !

How do you stop them from falling over?

Floor bolts?

 

[Purité Audio]

The ‘Main Towers’ really are superb, I don’t believe you could want more, of anything , no ‘lineariser’ plug in available for them yet though.

[Cortes]

what's the purpose of them in a living room of human scale?. Going deaf as quick as possible, get the envy of the neighbours, fall apart some close house, impress some woman?.

To hear whether many ( 16x8) multiple bass drivers ( four upper mid/mid ) create a more dynamic, uncompressed sound and because I can.

" Because I can " ah ah brilliant response. These things look brutal, have you measured the room response yet ?

 

[Purité Audio]

For you Thomas I will do it now.
Keith

 

[Purité Audio]

There you go, completely flat no EQ, just some Modex panels in the room, the room isn’t perfect and I have to use the Illusonic with the horns which are still at the other end of the room.

Curious how they differ with the D&D.
