I'm very impressed . Of both designs. Yours are possible to get into a normal home.

Well ,
Sorry but I think about Stanley Kubrick "clockwork orange " looking at those spekaers !
Could never listen to music with such a monster
I'll keep my 43xx and my house ......

well, the first ones are like "holy shit".... some people really do get freaked out, don't they... where do the get the cajones for that kind of stuff ??
Mr. Widgets'... now that's more like something I can dream about..

The physical alignments look problematic and I don't see any DSP on the designer racks.Originally Posted by Mr. Widget
Is time-alignment merely a wifey's tail (sic)...?
Or maybe you can just tell us how it's done. Maybe there are two DEQX's there - can't know.

post-script: Yours Widget, I know will incorporate the DEQX. But what of your fat friend?

"Indeed, not!!"
Two DEQX units with 10 custom DACs... because if you spend this kind of dough the stock DACs can't be good enough!!!Originally Posted by boputnam

Yep, that's way over the top alright!Originally Posted by Mr. Widget
That might be one interpretation.....Originally Posted by Earl K
Same here!Originally Posted by Gerard
And don't forget the super duper interconnect and speaker cables...say, at least $40,000 or so?Originally Posted by Mr. Widget

Surprisingly... he is not a cable guy. He thinks the cable stuff is all hype. For the most part his decisions are based on real improvements that have been verified by testing.Originally Posted by pmakres1
If you close your eyes while listening... the extravagant appearance disappears and the music really envelopes you... despite it's outward appearance (which I like, but agree is intimidating) the focus is on the sound.

I wish I had that much $$$ to play with!

The mortgage would have to include building a theater-size room. If you have to ask how much....Originally Posted by Mr. Widget
I suspect Alon has a very interesting shop to visit. Workmanship looks first-class.

Actually his "shop" is virtual. He does all of the design work and modeling on the computer and then hires the fabrication. To machine a 22" billet aluminum tractrix horn requires half million dollar machines...
But he does have a perfectionist's eye.

I think they're beautiful. I'm partial to JBL (duh!), but they must sound awesome!. I've felt the authority of Aura's 18" monster/Neo./radial motored subs and must admit that it doesn't get much better. As for the styling, it is like an impressionist's painting, really sophisticated leading edge style. I have to picture them in a Billionaire's pad, and there, they would fit like a fine leather glove. True Vision, tell your friend he's hit a home run. I've often thought that the absolute lack of enclosure resonance induced noise would allow one to hear all the driver's pure performance, or as much as can be expected at least. That massive billet slab must do just that. It looks like a lifetime of thought went into every aspect. I would like to see what Edmond May or any of JBL's top designers could have done/achieved, if given the cost is no object/quality at all cost parameters, as this gentleman seems to have followed. Nice to see a billionaire's toys too or at least a multi-millionaire's. Good stuff-Steve G.
