Those live plants are bound to leave rings on the top of those speakers!

People putting stuff on top of their speakers drives me nuts.

Setup by Devon Turnbull at the Lisson Gallery in New York. I don't mind it except for the turntable, which gives me PTSD flashbacks to elementary school. I saw Mr. Turnbull described as a "hi-fi influencer" which is a term I refuse to accept.

The best quote from the article is "Funny things happen when your speakers are flat to 13Hz. You have to be careful about your tone arm, your windows, your neighbors, and your bowels"

When I met her I had the Claw, a straight bass horn with a 50ft2 mouth and 9’ depth. Since then she has lived with the Kleinhorns (nearly as large, but stereo) and El Pipe-Os at 12’ high"
