3dzapper Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Would you want these Overkills in your living room for $75,000 new, $37,500 USED!

BS Button Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Yeah, and you could bi-wire up huge mono-blocks at another 20K with $100 a ft cables and wires. I'll just stick with the corns, 50 watt cheapy, lamp cord, and laugh all the way to the bank with better sound, thanks to Klipsch. I guess there was a reason he wore that button, eh?

LarryC Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Are those wheels? Oh, I guess not, I see they are spikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3dzapper Posted March 24, 2005 Author Share Posted March 24, 2005 I thought they were pseudo-pods. For that kind of money they had better be able to vacuum the floors and do windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect only those already well acquainted with audio would be the only type people that could appreciate their exquisite qualities! Oh wait, I'm assuming they sound amazing...my bad I did read the review posted at the bottom of the audiogon ad and I found the "bending-wave Manger driver" to be an interesting concept. They aren't very clear on it's design, but it seems like smaller diameters of the driver move when higher frequencies are being reproduced. But thinking about it a bit further, I wonder how this would work when a whole mess of frequencies were being made at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
