Things are dire when these are some of the most best looking speakers in the thread posted in the past few pages. What on earth are these abominations? Thankfully, some look like AI hallucinations and/or 3d renders.

They are the direct roots of your KH310. O98, O198, O300, KH310...

Differences between Klein & Hummel O300D & Neumann KH310
What the differences were between these two speakers? The O300D is sometimes available secondhand, the KH310 rarely. I'm just wondering if any improvements to the KH310 are worth the extra cost over the O300D at around 1/3rd the price on the secondhand market.

Very sad to say, these are not mine. On the happy side, my wife has accepted the need for a bigger house, which includes a bigger music roomI am extremely envy for you!!
! Once that is in place, we'll see what happens . There is also the matter of my first speaker love, the L300. Heard in shop 1978, never forgotten <3.Oh I worded that poorly, I don't mind the O98 much (but I don't find it a beautiful speaker either). I meant the other abominations in this thread.They are the direct roots of your KH310. O98, O198, O300, KH310...

Lovely design, and a great alternative to those large barn boxes!
A bit too wide, but still quite attractive. However, if they are pricing them unusually high, they can forget it.
I hate thin tower speakers, they remind me of those low quality products like "majestic", that's why, even though I'm sure they sound great, I would never buy a Kef ls60

Well, i don't like those at all (on view), and that is why I mostly don't comment on them. Taste differ, but these look like cheap plastic trash to me, not quality speakers. I'm probally wrong in my interpreteation of the visuals, but that is it.
But the varity is good, and to quote a smart guy, "If everyone is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking." (George S. Patton). So keep posting what you like (even if i or someone else doesn't like it). And don't cuss the other taste
I remember being impressed by the handsome appearance and size of the JBL L300. In my case it was at an audio show at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto circa 1972-3.Very sad to say, these are not mine. On the happy side, my wife has accepted the need for a bigger house, which includes a bigger music room

Hah, they even have model M1. Looks a bit like Guru Q10 but has two additional bass on the backside
Well, Ingvar Öhman never stated that, but he also employs the same "technology." One has a rectangular hole in the front, while the other has a smaller square one at the back. M1 is thin, whereas Q10 is thick. Have you ever heard Ingvar Öhman explain how his speakers work? Has anyone?
Any measurements for them?
The GGNTKT M1’s were pretty decent, I would still like a pair of their M3 here.

I will just never like speakers made out of stone, marble granite, whatever.
They will always remind me of bathroom tiles and kitchen countertops.
They look and feels high quality and perfectly fine. Way better imo than a lot of other high end speaker in that price range.
but before it seems like, i dont want do any marketing for them
I just liked the sound under this bad hotel room circumstances, i never heard them in a treated room.But for me it was the show highlight, miles better than any Wilson, Kef or other high priced systems there. I'm an Active ,,Fan,, and realy liked the presentation. Clean, Punchy, Detailed + a modern looking design wich isnt as ,,boxy,, looking, like a lot of other speakers
They feel solid as rock, the production quality is perfect (for me) - and an very nice and humble developer. The new Kii Seven for example looks and feels cheaper imo
Some specs :
5-Ax CNC Valchromat Cabinet
Aluminium Backplate for the Electronics
Pascal Class D Amps
Model M3 = 2x 1000 W
optional Model M3s = 2x 1500 W (for more Headroom)
Any RAL Color possible or even Metallic Car Finish
only 199mm Depth
210mm Tweeter (94db @ 1m)
125dB SPL Peaks max
Up to 40 Hz Cardiod

It's something my wife would approve of, but not the price. The only issue is that she doesn't like the tilt; it would look better as a tower, more like Guru 28. Comparable?
If I set aside the active component, it's quite easy to make. The concept is well-known.
