fletch_1950 Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 the Duets are 1.260 high & the Silhouettes are 1.580 high. I have had my silhouettes since the very early nineties & bought them directly from Lia & Glen from their factory & showroom. Fantastic speakers. 1
fletch_1950 Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 These are photos of the Duets & the Silhouettes.

fletch_1950 Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 $3500.00 second hand. That is a lot of money
westham60 Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 They wouldn't have cost much more than that 15-20 years ago. I have a pair of Duets (which cost $2k new in the late 90s as I recall) which I am having to get rid of because we are moving overseas. I am putting them on this forum's Classifieds Board, and will just be happy if they go to a good home. I didn't expect (and still don't) that they would be worth much now.
fletch_1950 Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Life is full of joy. Listening to vinyl this afternoon on my refurbished Thorens turntable pumped through Audio Definition Silhouette speakers. Absolute bliss. Both items purchased from Lia & Glen about 25 years ago & still going gang busters.

Drummerboyandy Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 Hi there, I have just been kindly gifted by a fellow named Jeff Neild a pair of Quintet serial number 10001. They have been kindly donated to my recording studio here in Whangarei northland new Zealand where I'm hoping they will serve as some very good playback speakers. I am so very interested in finding out about these beauties. Is your phone number still through same as on earlier threads? I'd love to catch up.

earlcole Posted October 1, 2018 Posted October 1, 2018 I don't suppose anyone has the specs for the Audio Definition Duets? I can't find any information on them and I own a pair.

Good morning Well let me see. Just for the record. Synergy model sold for $3,000 retail. There where at least 70 pairs made, of which about 20 went to China. Another 10 in Asia somewhere. I don’t believe there are any in Japan. The rest are in Aus. Super popular because of their efficiency and great sound. Email me direct and I can see if I have specs. The later model had a ribbon tweeter instead of the on in the pic. Still awesome however. Hope you love them. Liajet21@gmail.com Lia. Audio Definition 4

Tonysav Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 (edited) I have a pair of Audio Definition speakers (016) and I now have to down size. They have given me great joy over the years. I am now 85 years old and followed my father with a love of good quality music and reproduction. My Father was a horn loaded enthusiast and was a friend of Voigt. ( of Lothar Voigt) So Hi-Fi has been in my blood for a long time. Dad used to cut his own vinyl to try to get good recordings, in addition to always building his own amplifiers. In his days speakers were so efficient Voigt only used a few Watts to fill Alexandria Palace in the UK. I will put them on Gumtree in the near future. <snip>Classifieds Ad removed<snip> Edited April 30, 2019 by Marc advertising email address for purchasing speakers
