Most beautiful speakers in the world ?

This speaker embodies the true spirit of an oligarch.

I must be an oligarch in training!
:)

I think they look quite fetching.
Admittedly, I also would find them too large and dominating, but in terms of the lines, finishes, and combination of materials I find them quite appealing.

Then again, I like this as well:

Once my finances are in order, I would come in from playing with my pet Siberian tigers to spin a record on this turntable playing music through those speakers :)

I’m glad you managed to escape Russia and brought your precious belongings with you. :)


edit: silver pulley - you serious?

Are you referring to the belt drive of the turntable?

If so, hell, yes! I’d definitely get a kick out of owning that turntable! I currently own a somewhat blingy belt drive turntable:

Nope. I mean the pulley‘s color does not match the rest.
 
I have a hard time to get along with those Purifi surrounds. However, they measure just great

I had the Purifi woofers on my Philharmonic HT's and with the grills off I found that seeing the surrounds was stressing me out. They really are the visual embodiment of chaos and the opposite of "beauty".
 
ESD Acoustics "Super Dragon" - 811,000 Euros. Yes, it's a facebook reel - apologies if that's not allowed. Anyone know what piece of classical music that is that they are playing?
Edit: I finally found the music description scrolling across the bottom- I should have recognized it- it's Stokowski's orchestration of Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No 2.

A message to guys at Aalto speakers:
I'm quite sure they are not reading ASR so you better contact directly if you have some actual message.
You need to add grills to cover the unsightly woofers.
This should go to Purifi Audio. Driver manufacturer could/should offer protection grills and other smokescreens for end users having too sharp vision or unsafe conditions.

Agree, and could be easily attached by magnets.
 
There was plans on a smaller version with xtra box for the bass ala Allegro.
But am not sure if it ever went in to production.
Would say that Rondo is Really rare these days.

Can you find any data on this Rondo? Any idea what was inside?
