It not only a speaker, it is ART

Scanning the globe for extra ordinary speakers, I have come across beautiful speakers, and not so much beautiful. Talking to some of these manufacturers it is clear they are first about the music, second about design, but in some cases as you will see, some are a bit more brutal om their designs.

First of them all, is a speaker manufacturer you will be able to see some more info about on this blog. The company called, Everything But the Box. I am to admit the first impression I got from the speakers was not the design, but the pure stereo brilliance it delivered. It is unique in every way, stylish in more ways then one, here follows my favorites from the EBTB camp:

EVERYTHING BUT THE BOX




New Sputnik: Similar to their SubTerranean this could be used as a subwoofer or a Stereo setup, where it will consist out of three amplifier, enabling you to add to monitor speakers to the unit and connect your CD player, giving you a very unique stereo experience


ELIPSON



The French have always thought us that you can make something unique, but this next one will confuse a South African and in a way an American. No you can not barbecue or braai on this, this is a speaker, a real speaker. It ranges from between 40hz to 20KHz, handles between 50-100watts, perfect speaker to confuse the masses


And then this is where ELIPSON makes a stunning impression, it looks fabulous. Gross weight of 80kg, 150watts max power, you will have between 7 or 13 speakers in this very unique ART of a speaker. Consiting of one sub with option of 6 monitors (or fruit as they will call it) or 12 monitors, this speaker package will make sure you are covered under music, literally.





WATERFALL AUDIO KRYSTALINE

Waterfall Audio uses glass on this next design. It really looks stunning in real life, photo's can not do it justice. Having a sort of Horn Tweeter design combined with a down firing woofer, it makes for some interesting listening.




 The Swimming Pool Speaker


Not entirely sure about how practical this might be, but unique none the less. Through it into your pool.


This is part one done, will follow up on a later stage with more unique speaker collections.
