Most beautiful speakers in the world ?

[Mr. Widget]

Getting back on topic.

I don't think this one has made it to this thread yet, and it is red.

Did the red ones come off some fighter jet?

When can I move in?

IMO: That room just does NOT deserve those speakers.
IMHO: Come to think of it; nothing in that room matches anything in that room!
OIC: You want examples: *Black picture frames. *Black Drapes. *...
It's like an Oscars' night ChristianDior outfit that smells of mothballs!


We've all dated some of those types!

So judgey.

What’s beautiful in the imagination or a picture may translate into something else in a real world environment.

If you bring that to an audio show, not so many will listen to it. It's not only not my cup of tea on style, but it looks also not so well build, it could be a cheap crappy aliexpress or amazon speaker. Maybe it's the picture that is not right, but to me this looks like plastic crap.

And no, not all speakers that are not my style look crap, some are looking very high build quality if you disregard style, but not this one.

If you bring what?

One of the best colors on a bimmer. Is that a GT3 behind it?

You mean the one at upper left ?
That is a Carrera GT, 1 of 1270 made

Upper right might be a 930 of sorts.

I don’t consider these the most beautiful speakers in the world by far, but this is still an interesting unboxing video of the Vivid Audio Moya M1 flagship speakers, almost half $1 million.

They certainly look like serious business unboxing, and putting together .

The finish certainly looks really nice:

I was recalling somewhat seeing the guy use the metal Allen key, perilously close to the top finish of the loudspeaker.

User manual: You need a strong and stable couch for unboxing.

Hard work just watching it. Would not want to have to pack them away again.

Packed up some big speakers I'd sold back in their original packing last week. Took me hours and it was a lot simpler than those Gayas.

I love the maroon/gloss black finish, not the cabinet so much, but the color combination.

Black walnut panels inserted in a few spots with black burl plinths. Oh yeah!

I'll bet those cost a pretty penny just the way they are. They remind me of an Exo-suit on Babylon 5 (Vorlons) for some reason.

About the same price as a Porsche GT3 RS!

About the same price as a Porsche GT3 RS!

Is that comparison -solely based-on $$- legit?

One has a built-in 374kW power-source <> the other -probably- needs a very expensive and external 4kW power source.
One weighs 1500 kg <> the other -probably- weighs around 400kg (w/amp).
At 250W/kg <> 10W/kg; I'd rather drive the 911/GT3RS.

$269,000 per pair in 2023. Starting price for the Porsche in 2023 was $225,250 so with the addition of taxes and fees, etc, I surmised the price to be about equal. Ridiculous when one considers the complexity and engineering in the Porsche in comparison to the Estelon Extreme mk2 speakers!

When it comes to Estelon speakers, I’m not a huge fan of the look. But when it comes to those giant flagship Estelon speakers they are kind of cool in a “ if you’re going to go for it, go for it” aesthetic. The finish is beautiful. They look a bit like cool aliens. And there’s a very purposeful look.

Having listened to a couple different Estelon speakers at my friends place, they don’t really grab me. They do a good job of sounding very open, boxless and precise, but there’s a sort of mechanical or artificial quality, a bit of a stripped to the bone tonal quality, that I don’t get on with.
