Daedalus and Omega Audio have attractive cabinetry
How many NICE looking high end floor standing speaker are there at present
Hi,
Sometimes when I dream, imagining of replacing my current 1997 Burmester 961 speakers, before maybe COVID19 is sending me to an early grave - I'm practically only stumbling on ugly often even like somehow crippled looking speaker creations.
Test will say, sounding fantastically gorgeous and - looking like 💩.
This, or par tout looking like some or other children's coffin ⚰. 😥👻
Not for the life of it, can I imagine ever having some such 'creation' invading my daily living space. Ever.
Talking 'bout a BAD WAF situation, I say.
Some makers are trying to improve on this tragic situation with creations looking far too anatomical or something alien👾 fruit thing hanging off a tree... handle an' all.
Is there no hope out there at all...? 🤔
So can one savely move on forgetting about a replacement, still in this here life, and saving the money 💰 ?
Well, the budget <= max 20k $ lets say, so I won't risk starving before the lockdown will end ever. 😱

In the eye of the beholder https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisa11i7-sonus-faber-stradivari-homage-demo-pair-ships-from-eu-full-range https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis9g9ij-opera-loudspeakers-callas-diva-full-range if you like Italian style, beautiful veener. I have Opera, just not those. |
I particularly like the way Raidho's look - although not so much their price. https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisa2cda-for-trade-raidho-acoustics-d5-1-loudspeakers-walnut-burl-full-range |
Tablejockey has the right idea. I think to most women the Sonus Faber speakers will win that battle as they look more like fine furniture. They are also a fine sounding loudspeaker. A note to all you young unmarried audiophiles out there. Get the biggest, ugliest speakers you can afford. If they marry you with those monstrosities you are in business. When I met my wife I had Magnepan Tympani's, perfect. Anything looks better than Tympani's. She'll have no problem swallowing Sound Labs 845's:) |
