Speaker Porn

[tyrion]

Aura, those HT3s are beauties. One of these days I will hear a pair to see if they are all show and no go.

Terrible picture, but it is porn. Taken from this A'gon listing.

[Salt Peanuts]

Mmmmm, mesmerizing blue lights of McIntosh.

[Duggeh]

What's sitting in front of each speaker?

[Knuckledragger]

Looks like Mac monoblocks. Maybe MC-75s.

[tkam]

New monitors from Selah Audio, going to be using them nearfield. Raal ribbon tweeter and the woofer is from sb acoustics.

Hell yeah. I went back and forth with Rick about building some MTMs around the Raals for home theater use, but they never came to be. Please report back!

[cetoole]

Hawtness indeed.

[HeadphoneAddict]

Isn't there another set of monoblocks already there? Seems like putting those things in front of the speakers isn't the best place for them, being subjected to vibrations and such, unless they are there as room treatments and it helps the sound.

ooh you stealthy todd, i saw this post by rick over at audiocircle but didn't put 2 and 2 together.

sick monitors bro, looking forward to any/all impressions if you feel inclined to provide them .

what are the dimensions of the enclosures if you'd mind my asking?

[tkam]

They are 14" x 8.5" x 13", the cabinet is curved so the 8.5" width is up-front at the widest point.

There is a lot of awesome in that room. Shots taken from this auction posted by Tom.

Yes - very very sweet. I'm going by memory here - but I think that same guy posted a pair of rosewood Tannoy D700 up for sale last year. I recognize that room. I think the (bigger) Memory speakers were in the back in those shots. The D700s are seriously big and bad, but I guess not quite enough for a dude so hardcore as this! I guess it looks like he prefers the B&W speakers since the GRFs are for sale.

Edit:Nope, looks like the B&W are for sale too. My god, WTF has he got incoming?

His own private orchestra?

I'd like to think Westminsters.

[Salt Peanuts]

probably something hi resolution.

Photos come from the Flickr page of this joker who contributes to the same gearhead group I do.

I want to see his Transformers display case.

[Beefy]

All that awesome, and they are listening to the bloody Black Eyed Peas?

Don't forget Lady Gaga.

I won't front. Lady GaGa has some pretty good songs.

x2. I didn't notice them the first time until I saw your post.

[laxx]

I'll show you mine if you show me yours. haha

Too bad he's not on this forum for me to say that to.

[Listen2this1]

I love Martin Logan speakers. I actually worked there.

The New CLX

[Hopstretch]

Some of their recent stuff has been -- no offence -- pretty dodgy, but that looks good. Linky?
