July 16, 200916 yr Such pretty cabinets. Unfortunate about those dynamic drivers though Can't we all learn to live together? Those are stunning!
July 17, 200916 yr And these were absolutely amazing at this years CES - Perfect 8 "The Force" a cool $300,000 If I had the money these would be on my list.
July 17, 200916 yr A close friend of mine builds these. Man i heard those speakers at RMAF last year..the guys there were awesome.. I couldn't believe that it was a passive 3 way design. Symposioum or something the name was. Complete with Manley tape reel. That was some sweet music i heard from those speakers...and strangely I was told that speakers wasn't their main business.
July 17, 200916 yr Symposium Acoustics Symposium Acoustics: Primarily Vibration Control I have a bunch of Symposium equipment in my system. An Isis rack, Roller Blocks, and Ultra Platforms. The stuff works really well.
July 17, 200916 yr So the monolith is a mono setup? The monolith is a single element point source 1:1 air coupled zero point to audio transducer with the capacity to render mono, stereo, quad, 5.1 or binaural signal from any room position. Sadly, you need at least 1.81jiggawatts into an 8 ohm nominal capacitive load in order to avoid distortion caused by a lack of bridging capability over the zero point matrix.

July 24, 200916 yr It looks like he bought his system from this guy: Asylum Trader - Sound Lab Majestic 945 Full Range Electrostatic Panels
July 24, 200916 yr Focal Grande Utopia EM: There used to be a magazine, I think it was called Audio -- they had the greatest gear porn. Very cool Video. So... near the end, is that "Golden Ears" guys drawing a frequency response curve by ear?
July 24, 200916 yr Very cool Video. So... near the end, is that "Golden Ears" guys drawing a frequency response curve by ear? I'm wondering if that is the development phase or each unit is heard by some golden ears as part of QC
July 25, 200916 yr anyone know the first song in the intro of the above posted video? It's in the credits at the end. [url=http://www.amazon.com/From-Gagarins-Point-Of-View/dp/B0016114DE/ref=dm_cd_album_bb_alt]Amazon.com: From Gagarin's Point Of View: MP3 Downloads: Esbj
July 25, 200916 yr Very cool Video. So... near the end, is that "Golden Ears" guys drawing a frequency response curve by ear? I'm just wondering how they made my cheap laptop speakers sound all audiophile with that soundtrack Video was very well done.
July 25, 200916 yr I didn't get the feeling that it was just one song, but the credits only list one song. I liked all of them. And yes, I have the album wishlisted.I'm just wondering how they made my cheap laptop speakers sound all audiophile with that soundtrack That's what I call audiophile music -- that's why they play that kind of music -- that sparse, jazz trio shit -- at all the audiophile conventions. It makes any system sound good. Edited July 25, 200916 yr by Dusty Chalk
