"I wouldn't have them in MY living room" Michelle, you would hate the look of my speakers more than any in the world. "You wouldn't be sitting in MY sweet spot"
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. 😱
😘 M. 🇿🇦

@isochronism Hm, makes me wonder... are you trying for first price in fuglyness? 🤔 Maybe you just kidding? Not posting your system though, might be a clue,- that you mean it. Now a girl could always be cajoled to part take in some blind(folded) testing in an audio-den, no? 🤔😊 So long its not my living room - it be just beholding odd stuff. I've seen my share, without making any noises. Seriously 😊 Michélle 🇿🇦 |
@shahram Sorry too, um, retro - or maybe not enough retro for my liking? They will sound nice as you say - as do so many... In fact these soet of 'long boxes' ⚰, they remind me of my early German aquistion of a pair of ELACs. Those had also good test results, but of course for recommended 'Einsteiger' hifi. I'm sure these Spendor D series will be superior, by how much, who knows? In any case, those plain Englophile designs are too 70s, never mind 80s... to my likings. I then had a pair of AR7s, which I really did like (at the time). Alas, - 'times they are a changing...' eh? Michélle 🇿🇦 |
Just goes to show that everyone's tastes are different! I just love how the Spendor D7 looks in my system. I love the clean lines and walnut wood look. Plus they are pretty small and dont impose much on the room. https://photos.app.goo.gl/FMGxinTW6jHENYWp9 |
