Fantastic speakers - I want to build a pair of those!!! How much did they set you back and can i get the plans do do them my self?! Plaese!!! :-)
-
Maybe a little too predominant on the highs because of the horns but I like it.
-
@maxbify It doest sound realistic because its filmed by a crappy camera, uploaded to youtube, compressed, and then playing on your computer, probably with a bad soundcard trough bad speakers or headphones.
-
what brand/series of speakers are these??? Thanks.
-
this doesnt sound realistic :S prolly cuz there is horns witch colours the sound

I believe I saw this setup in my travels through the head-fi forums.

I dare you to play the first two tracks of "Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters" (movie soundtrack by Philip Glass) on your setup. I've had stuff break at my house when Track 2 really kicks in - who knows what would happen at your place.
Please post the damage, if you do. And don't mind the neighbors...
Thanks for the comments, actually the system has moved on since this posting. I will make some more videos.
Spaceman 1981 - I will try out the LP you mentioned and see if I blow the windows in my flat @__@
AeWingnut - ok I will get a tripod - sorry !
kloug2006 - yes good headphones are essential to get a good balance check on your system - totally agree !

Most audiophiles prefer to listen to music produced in the late 50's and early 60's which is the golden age of recordings. You will find those recordings and most of them recorded live in very good halls or in a Jazz cafe. This kind of ambience is hard to produce in a recording studio.
The key no matter what is to enjoy music - that is what counts in the end 8^)

Good points. Studio recordings are different from live recordings or recordings done say in a concert hall etc. What some people forget is that in the recoding studio they also use headphones which are very balanced and also give a full range of frequencies.

Seems to sound fantastic! I've never heard horn speakers like that, is it very different than standard speakers?

@kloug2006
These speakers are very dynamic and very transparent - I am only using a 2W amp to drive them :-)
