Eggmeister Posted April 7, 2019 Author Share Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) I actually lied, I have learnt not to follow the flavour of the month and making sure the amplification works well with the speakers used.

Guest deanB Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Sorry man, didn't mean to put you on the spot. I recognise the Magico A3, Harbeth 7es and some type of Maggie? Maybe an Epos standmount? Anyway, all very lovely looking speakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luc Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 @Yngvi the Artist formerly known as The Archduke Eggmiester of Castle Nog in the Duchy of Egg has form on the scratching of itches. Like he's infested with fleas and the only way to get rid of them is to buy obscure branded speakers. The Leyland P76 of Speakers Award was handed out on the quiet to the manufacturers of Rethm speakers and the Marga is the 2 door Targa Florio of their range It certainly appeals to a particular market. The rest of the speaker purchases just smack of 'elitism' and us plebs with our Heos BT speakers nad Bose soundbars can only drool on the sidelines. I've owned a couple of lowbrow speakers and will post pics a bit later. The Lord Egg travels down roads that few others will or would travel and while we sit on safe paths with our purchases he just wades into the unknown and saves us from having to go there or makes us wish we could go there... WD Eggy, fantastic trip your on. ....... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 I’d list mine but I’ve forgotten some of the earlier model numbers, so a list would be pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul k Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Wow you guys had some amazing speakers. This is what I had in the last 2 years trying to find right combos. Some were regratfull to see leave me especially the missions. And the jbls lx800 for memory both had amazingly detailed sound. At present running the old bw 570 they have a very nice full sound with my current amplifier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
