Most beautiful speakers in the world ?

[Killingbeans]

I see that speaker and all I can think is this monstrosity:

Wasn't going to say anything, but here I go (don't google this if you're very squeamish). All I see is:

Spoiler

a severe case of rectal prolapse.

...I'm so sorry.

What's going on with that exposed bottom driver?

They're upside down - and they're inside out! ️

These could use a paint job.

The most beautiful speakers in the world? For whom ?
Obviously, for me, they are mine!

I didn't think that very many people would remember "Day of The Tentacle" which was a rather obscure PC game back in the day ...

There's a remastered version available on Steam if you want to relive those old days in higher resolution: https://store.steampowered.com/app/388210/Day_of_the_Tentacle_Remastered/

I wouldn't call it obscure. It was made by LucasArts. Can't imagine a PC gamer from the day that didn't know about it.

EDIT: Ohh well. Did a bit of research. Guess I was wrong. It didn't sell very well. And the Monkey Island games sold even worse (WTF!?) The life of cult classics are strange...

They look like David Banner's dumbell set.

I still think these look absolutely awesome on white stands...

On white stands? Those would be my Bucky Badger speakers...

On Wisconsin...

I wonder what the correlation is between the speakers here and in the worst measuring thread.

I liked the original more (for looks). The slender hourglass curves on the side and rounded cross-section gave it a more organic, musical-instrument-like appearance.

I agree, the contrast between the black and wood sections, as well as the horizontal lines between planks, also break the mass up visually. Overall the old design is much more intricate and meticulous.

I prefer the new one, it's not impossible they measure ok, but I've not bothered to look the price up, I'm sure it's madness.

not nearly as bad as I thought...

I wouldn't pay 50k or even any dollar, for a pair of speakers that look like curved bars of soap.

I'm not crazy about most high-end speakers, either. Trying wayyyy too hard.
