Guest Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 Thought the pair of these carbon fibre horns had some "spectacular" value.
SPR08Y Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 (edited) Not that there is a big chance of ever affording these, the Oswalds Mill speaker collection looks insane. If it sounds as good as it looks - yikes! I think the Minis with the Sub (which reminds me of Darth Vaders helmet) would be awesome! However, the AC1 is probably the prettiest in my opinion? (Especially the ebonised Oak) Check out the Oswalds Mill Audio website (Excessive amounts of hifi porn!) if you haven't already. I'd love to visit! One day....... Edited July 14, 2016 by SPR08Y 2
leo Posted July 13, 2016 Posted July 13, 2016 Re. the most spectacular speaker,I raise my hand and declare the crown must go to the Pinnacle AC 650.I am the proud owner of a pair,and these are the ones I will be buried with.

I have heard these on 'Song for our Ancestors' from Steve Millers Sailor album because surely they are the fog horns from San Francisco Bay! Some of these speakers are the most ugly things I have ever seen IMHO but then again you buy them for their sound not looks. I would love to have a pair of those B & W's that look like a saxaphone.

Holy sh#t...this AC1 is pure eyegasm! I bet it sounds better than the KEFs above...but then it's not hard to find something that sounds better than KEF anyway

Wonder how they sound? I suspect some decent subs are still needed if you want to get down to 20Hz. Andy

Andy http://horns.pl/en/speaker-sets/universum-3-way/ Just had a squiz at their website, looks like they must have squeezed a 15" woofer into that vertical "horn". Not quite 20 Hz but they rate it to 30 Hz (no dB limits quoted). Regards, SS

The Tower series weighs 950 pounds and features dual 18 inch woofers/side...should fill the room ok. I could build those...! Turned upside down the one on the left looks like a cross between Robbie the Robot and one of the Darleks. Or, as Arnie would have said, 'That's one ugly lookin' M #$% F'
