Most beautiful speakers in the world ?

[seka]

Follow up on another thread. Those kind of speakers on small wooden stands fascinate me. Not sure why.

Interesting. Looks like an old camera, kind of.

Speaker as artwork.

The engineering side of me is aghast at some of these cabinets which contribute absolutely nothing to function, and in many cases, may degrade sound quality. Form should follow function. The rest of it is subjective art.

If Engineers Aghast isn't the name of a math-rock band already, it should be.

If it's only for the looks, I like big wooden speakers like these custom build by the japanese builder Moriyama-san for his workshop/bar/... in the Toho village in Fukuoka, Japan. Both the OB (on top) and the cabinet (below) are a MTM with old JBL drivers i thought (altough little info is giving about them). I have no id how they sound, but they look gorgious...

If I knock out all my walls and throw away my furniture they might fit.
If I'm ever in Japan a must see. And a must listen.

I like classic, wooden speakers. Yup, good ol' rectangular boxy things. But a bit more on the novel side I have to mention Duevel Venus. Might'be been mentioned already, didn't go through the entire thread.

I really like them. I wonder how they would fare in Amir or Eric's measurements. I am also very curious if it would be possible to create a DIY project in the style of these JBLs ...

It has been done, it's basicly a pair of 15" woofers crossed low to a big compression driver that does the mid-high and then crossed to a supertweeter. Mid and supertweeter are hornloaded. There are some clones or almost clones made in the past by people, google them.

In the Polish press it is described as the most perfect instrument for playing music. I know, marketing, but maybe a grain of truth in it?

My pair of 1990s Blue Room Minipods are currently on shelves that don’t have enough room to use the legs, so they don’t look as good as these:

Price probably kills?

TBD, i think you got that right......The Brand demands outrages Prices. The Asia Market goes crazy for swiss Brands (CH Precision, Nagra, Soulutions etc) all of them sells 70% to Asia Customers...

I mean Goldmund selled a DVD Player for 200`000 USD

Was it a player produced in collaboration with aliens?

Don't really have any thoughts about the speakers, like his sneakers though.
