Most beautiful speakers in the world ?

It's like bored cabinet maker meets f-117 meets Sith Lord meets Dark Crystal meets WTF?!. And for some reason I kinda like it. :p
Me too, shame that they literally cost a million quid. (Well, £950,000 anyway).
 

No thanks:

This thread doesn’t just contain the most beautiful speakers in the world. It now also contains the ugliest speakers in the world :oops:
 
They retail here at £1200 each which suggests the BOM cannot be more than £120 per speaker. The tweeters might retail at a grand but that's not what they cost Focal.
Focal makes both the drivers and the housings in house, so they got it way cheaper than you who needs to buy them (with some steps that take their profit in between).

I know.

If you refer back, the poster was suggesting that the retail cost of the drivers made the speaker exceptional value for money. I was making the point that the tweeters do not cost Focal anything like the retail price - which can be set at anything - and that's therefore not a useful indicator that speakers using them are great value for money.

Which doesn't mean they are not, of course.
 
1030a or 1031a covered in birch veneer. It looks like there's an old 1092a subwoofer underneath, which I had as a young boy.
