My Status 8T Speakers are Born

[gene]

Ah the first pics are in for the Status Acoustics 8T speakers RBH Sound is building for me to review.

Check it out!

 

[ACsGreens]

Wow!

That's just rediculous. Maybe the most visually exciting speaker I have ever seen. I am willing to bet the sound matches the looks! Oh to be Gene......

 

[Nuance AH]

Wow - definitely striking! I look forward to your impressions, Gene.

So do pallet-jacks go up stairs?

They kind of remind me of this... I bet they will sound awesome.

Not that I am aware of and I am still dreading how to deal with this

Just what I was thinking.

Gotta Say those are some seriously cool looking speakers...

No offense - but when I went to visit their site, clicking on products leads me to a line of different products they have made, but EVERY ONE of them has been discontinued... Whats the deal with that...?

RBH are much better at building speakers than they are at websites Seriously, their website needs to be completely redone.

that's not going to work on my stairs, especially with the sharp right angle turn half way up them

 

[randyb]

Boy, those things look like they could blow the roof off. Looking forward to review and measurements. Hopefully, they won't cause any landslides in the moutains in the background.

 

[ACsGreens]

Winner Winner!!

So is there truth to the rumor that the first person to respond to Gene's post wins the pair he is auditioning? No? Well, it was worth a shot. On a lighter, completely unrelated note, I heard a pair of Salk speakers this week, wow was that an experience. Incredible sound, very impressed. Of course they were drived by a BMC amp and source was a Oppo that had a completely rebuilt analog section with seperate power supply. So seriously, on those speakers, did I win?

 

[miniSQ]

since everyone has chimed in to say how great those speakers look, i won't worry about hurting anyones feelings here....

those are so butt ugly its offensive....JMO>

Gene, $50,000 speakers probably deserve an elevator installation.

Besides, it's an excuse to find one more thing to put speakers in

My dad's been bugging me to add an elevator to my home since I built it. It's not such a cheap endeavor and it would still involve moving heavy objects like this all the way to my backyard over a lawn.

Luckily these speakers are module and I will have hired help to move them since my lower back can no longer take the brunt of it.

Gene an elevator in a home is more trouble than its worth, talk to my father... In your case since you can spend $50k for speakers, having a crane lift that crate up to your upstairs room is a easy haul, of course after you remove some of your windows/walls.

Cranes, tearing down walls; sounds like a piece of cake to me...
