Finally...subwoofer that's aesthetically pleasing!


Saw these in a trade mag.

$750K for the set according to the article.

If one has the wallet for this kind of excess-HELL YEAH!

I personally think a pair of the old Stradivari would compliment the subs more than the Suprema towers. Perhaps not a sonic match, but that would only be a $20/30K goof-put those in the guest room.

I have to contact SF to see if they’ll sell another pair of subs for my SWARM setup.

Thanks for the follow up.  I really have no concern where a speaker manufacturer sources their drivers in case that was accidentally implied.  To me, sourcing the speakers from a driver manufacturer makes a lot of sense, but I can understand the other side.

"Sadly in the press release you could see the scan speak sticker on that midrange"

I would hope it is NOT an off the shelf model and at least a tweaked version?

$750K for subs?  Are there that many people rich enough or foolish enough to plop down $750,000 for these? 

It is my understanding that's the price for the entire mains + subs (and electronic crossover) system, not that that makes it a glowing bargain by any stretch of the imagination. Sonus Faber should be commended though for going the active filter route here, which at the same time makes you wonder why this is not becoming a more widespread solution with anything other than statements systems. 

REO Speedwagon is awesome! Saw them at Folsom field in 1981!

Arrrrrrggghhhhh!!!!!!!

I'm just gonna keep on rolllin' with the gear I got 'till it's time for me to fly.
