AvanteGarde Acoustic Trio Classico with Bass Horns

First to recommend

Description

Before you clear a space in your living room, let me warn you- these speakers have a $189,000 price tag. Yep.

from the site:
The TRIO Classico version incorporates a circular support. Contrary to static constructions the rounded shape of the TRIO Classico perfectly reflects the dynamics of the spherical horns. Its unique shape has become the immense trademark of Avantgarde Acoustic for the past 10 years now.

The Classico version is the logic visualization of the outstanding technical features of the TRIO: the art of simple music reproduction to become a voluptuous experience involving all senses. So thrilling and exciting as a real concert. The TRIO Classico version uses the same horns and drivers and is technically identical to the standard TRIO version with its straight frame structure.

Wilson Audio Alexandria Speakers

First to recommend

Description

From Born Rich:

Wilson Audio has earned itself a name as one of the top luxury speakers’ manufacturers. The new Wilson Audio Alexandria Loudspeakers do deserve a place in the list of top 10 luxury speakers with its whopping price tag of $200,000 and an inimitable make. The uncanny looks of the loudspeakers somehow resembles the leg of a Transformer. The loudspeaker uses upper frequency driver modules that adjust linearly to optimize time alignment while each of the modules rotate on its polar axis to pull off optimal driver dispersion for multiple listening positions. With the manufacturers popping out luxury speakers like rabbit popping out bunnies, I think I will have to make another list of top 10 luxury speakers very soon. (via Born Rich)

Cabasse $150,000 La Sphere Speakers

First to recommend

Description

From Born Rich:

If you think that the pictured above is some kind of colossal eyeball webcam, you are mistaken. It’s in actual the “La Sphere“ speaker from Cabasse that is designed to create unique ambiences for interior spaces and enhance acoustics of the spaces like theater rooms. The spherical corral is intended to help eliminate standing waves and create a more rounded sound. The four-way co-axial speaker claims to offer unrivalled technical and musical specifications in a compacter volume than all other ultimate systems. I am not sure whether this inimitable design really throws out good sound but the price tag of $150,000 for a pair would optimistically do full justice with the sound quality too. (via Born Rich)

Arvus Pre-Renaissance Loudspeakers

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

From Born Rich:

If you can’t get enough of over-the-top and highly expensive loudspeakers, here is another one. Arvus Loudspeakers, a New Zealand-based company, has launched their exclusive loudspeakers, “The Prerenaissance.” The speakers are aesthetically designed and look grand and stylish. The technical part of the loudspeakers is quite unmatched too. Each pair of the loudspeakers has taken hundreds of man hours each and the result is of course extravagant and almost artistic. The speakers come in wood, painted, carbon fiber, and stainless steel finish options. The loudspeakers also have 6 channels of amplification, which make up a total of 3000 watts RMS. This could very well be the ultimate statement of luxury and decadence. Each pair of The Prerenaissance loudspeakers costs $140,000. (via Born Rich)
