New Dutch&Dutch loudspeakers.

[Mr. Widget]

My experience with the 8c was that it was already more than capable in even large rooms.

What they are capable of seem to defy all expectations.

 

[Mr. Widget]

This is an interesting size comparison.

The 8c is not tiny... that 15c is a monster!

Not that big considering 8381 also has 3X15

Now your ready for ROCK & ROLL..
In that price range I've been having fantasy dreams about the new JBL Summit Makalu $60,000.00
But that's a passive speaker so you gotta add amps..

At that price they should have been active

I would rather have a pair of 8cs.

View attachment 504229Yeah, it most definitely hits different with a banana!

My guess is 90K for a pair.

So this is basically like hanging two washing machines in your livingroom

The purifi 12inch cardioid system from Ascilabs may be a contender? Iam also guessing will be considerably cheaper.

15C will have higher SPL capabilities.

The current C8C+B8XC model has about 120 L external volume. 15C is about 250-300L from visual estimations. Even of the future Purifi model is bigger than the C8C+B8XC, I doubt it will come close to the 15C's size. You can do a lot with driver technology but imho, that's probably too large of a size gap to overcome and I have no doubt that D&D will also use very good drivers.

I do think it will be cheaper, but not because the Ascilab model will be cheap, but because the 15C will be very very pricey.

I was thinking a total of 6 12inch Purifi drivers per speaker - 2 on the sides, and 4 in the bass module. Thats if AscLab follow the same design as the C8C/BX8C. No idea what volume it will be. Knowing AsiLab - they now have a target/challenge with the 15C!

Well one issue is that there is no Purifi 12" woofer.

Ah!
Maybe it was 10inch Purifi? The plan for it is buried somewhere in their very long thread.

Genelec's,, at their costs they should be pretty.

Lol
I don't care about the looks
But yeah JBLs are prettier

 

[Salt]

I'm missing the hip-waist-ratio to feel to think these are 'pretty' ...
