    Glass speakers...

    Now that's something new.
    http://www.gstspeakers.com/home.html

    Patent pending so we won't have too much technical details.
    They're supposed to be at CES in Vegas in january, I'm not going but maybe some people here will and report

    Interesting concept.

    Yet, what happens if a musical note hits the resonate frequency of the glass???
    The glass would shatter into a zillion pieces or so !
    If you can remain calm in a crises, you don't understand the situation!

    Wow, those look neat!
    Destined to have a good WAF score.
    But how do they sound?

    Imagine, combine these with laser etching and fiberoptics to make something near otherworldly.

    I know nothing about these but what the manufacturer has released, which is little - almost all the "Articles" their website links to seem to be identical blog releases under different names - paid press. That said, I suspect they have something like this hidden in each base:

    Not the same brand but a similar theme. HiFi World did a review on Waterfall speakers in September and gave them rave reviews - I would be very intrigued to hear them but I haven't seen them in any hifi shops in London.

    they were at CES in Las Vegas last week. I had a quick listen they were very interesting in both looks and sound .They were set up in a surround system as well as stereo. I did get a chance to hear them in both systems. Iheard that others from the forum were at the show maybe they had more time that I did to listen to them. I will check when I get back in my office to see if I pulled a brochure
