sparks1968 Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 I've been sent these from a mate who works in a company that supplies parts to Perreaux...can't reveal on pain of death to him...haven't got any idea of pricing.... But they look great:) Attached files
AntG Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Very sharp clean lines. I await the rest of the story.
Dunnersfella1553552754 Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 OMGLOLWTFBBQ?!?!?! I would be fascinated to hear them / and I would also hesitate a guess that they'd 'go okay' if they were to put their mind to powered speakers... I bet Marty / Clinton get a few phone calls tomorrow!
chopper30 Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 In conjunction with Image perhaps? Cabinet work looks a bit Imagey

Actually they look quite nice, with the rounded black section being a nice styling refernce to the Audiant. Might be interested my own self. Thinking of moving my 414s.
Ernie1553552694 Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Like they say in the world of fashion, they're a bit samey, samey.
I will decide! Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 I am currently saving for Image Rev's 2 to pair with the 250i, however.....is this for real thou?
Shane Hanify Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 It would be interesting to see if Perreaux knows this information is in the wild. And how they would sound attached to my amps ... which are also from that marque. Regards.
jcooze Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 According to their Facebook page they know now. They have just posted a link to here from there!
Ernie1553552694 Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 As much as the leaker is an enthusiast, and this board has many enthusiasts of the brand, I'd still be annoyed with this kind of behaviour from a supplier. It's not someone else's call to release the images, unless of course this was the master plan...
Nathan1553552747 Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 I've been waiting for these to rear their heads. I was told about these around a year ago when I asked somebody at Perreaux for some speaker advice.

Omegaspeedy Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Nice looking speakers. Wonder what the pricing will be?

Then again, cricket isn't really a 'happening thing' in Dunedin at this time of year.
Ernie1553552694 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Well, who knows what the play is from these guys anyway. Doesn't seem to be that much in advance of what they are blogging for themselves now. If the leaker had posted dark, surreptitiously framed photos posted weeks if not months in advance then it might be different.
Reverend Johnny Heathen Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Does nobody else look at those pix and see grandmas old Formica table??
Ernie1553552694 Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 I hope it doesn't sound like your grandmothers formica table.
T110 Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Looks are always a matter of personal taste however I've found it pays to wait and see them in the flesh. They actually look quite interesting to me. Perreaux are operating in a highly competitive market place on a global scale, I'm not prepared to knock them for doing what they feel they need to do. Good luck to them. It's a good sign that they are about to market loudspeakers and good for us too. Simple really.

got tinnitus Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Anyone want to speculate on price? I'll start.... $4k?
guitardude Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 $2995.00 with a single rear port somewhere on the lower half of the back panel, biwirable terminal strip somewhere about halfway up. Nominal 4 ohm load.
Ernie1553552694 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Pretty much GD. If I was a bookmaker I'd give low odds on that bet.
