Think if we made SLAs out of glass we could charge $53,999.95 for them?

These look even better.

I wish I didn't have morals and could take advantage of "audiophiles". I could be so rich.

Aw man, you are cracking me up!

The :bull: blurb! Hilarious.

My favs:

Unique to the audio world is that this speaker will be a strictly limited edition run with each pair hand-signed by the designer [oh well, if it's signed]...resulting in a sound that extends far beyond the range of human hearing at both the upper and lower extremes...Frequency Response: 15Hz to 90Khz (within 2 db)..."ultra-limited edition functional acoustic art works" [they've made two pairs]...employs technology derived from advanced tactical fighter plane design, nuclear reactor containment construction and atomic submarine radar jamming...

$500,000!

Reminds me of these speakers I saw a CES earlier this year.

Definitely more for show than sound but TBQH they didn't sound bad.

I like how the ears are covered by fabric in the picture. I think that may affect some of the 3k-90k sound.

Note that the picture is a CGI. They're waiting for the first sucker to buy it before they actually build it.

They weigh over 1 Ton!
The pair of speakers weigh over one ton due to their proprietary construction design engineered to remove virtually all vibration from the cabinet and system.

I'd just build the enclosure out of concrete ...

Reminds me of the Jack in the Box commercial 'At the Fast Food Convention' where there was some twenty-something kid advertising his services as a 'hamburger consultant' for $25,000. Jack asked, "Isn't that a little expensive?" and the kid replied, "I only need one."
