WHAT ARE THESE???

[Kevin Lee]

I met this angel at a gramophone museum in South Korea. It sounded really good and had a stadium-like sound.
I'm guessing they're vintage. I had this pic on my Instagram (@dohyun85570) for a while now and I never found out what model it is. Can you audioholics find out?

There were two of these with dedicated monoblocks for each. You can see that a horn speaker is place left of it.
The museum had a lot of those.

Apparently someone says only 50 of these were made and prices are "if you have to ask..."

Very interesting. Thank you so much!
They have a push pull inside the horns.

You're welcome. Glad my googlefu was able to put in good use.

That was some pretty impressive Google-fu. The internet is strong in you.

I don't know how you figured out what kind of speakers those were, those are awfully obscure. They are certainly not authentically vintage designs though. There are some modern things going on there.

I just returned to planet earth after reading the Stereophile article and review. First off, those speakers are something else. Not sure if something that complicated is a positive or what.

But the review! The review is a text book example of what is the worst aspect of our hobby: the elitist mentality and vocabulary. I feel like I need some brain bleach after reading endless pages of self congratulating flagellation as the reviewer trods his auditory journey towards auditory nirvana.

The speakers seem like they could sound pretty good. At $37,000 a pair I might have a few expectations. Great to see pictures of these though. Pretty cool.

The link to the museum I went to is here:

If you scroll down through the images, you can see the speakers.

They are not the first people to display commercial product in the museum as art

They look like, Klingon speakers.
