I hope you realize that the look of that speaker has nothing to do with the sound quality which is absolutely superb. Personally, I like the fine furniture grade finish.

No, I did not realize that. Wow! Seriously??? I can't tell what a speaker sounds like by its appearance?

i guess these would be ok if you lived in a log cabin....hmmm....no, still ugly.
 
How about mine are they ugly to you to ????? - - - View attachment 7104

well those are entirely different then the speakers I was commenting on, but since you asked, they sure as hell aren't pretty. Giant slender towers covered in a black sock. Definitely doesn't just blend into a room. Probably not so much ugly as just a bizarre item to have in a living area.

Like the cat though...

That is fine. You are entitled to your opinion & so am I. I think these Daedalus speakers look miles better than the PMC speakers you are trying to sell on audiogon.

Deleted improper post Gary was right.
 
You guys sound like a bunch of women discussing the WAF! :weird:

The sound should be your greatest concern.

Ha! ...too funny, sounds just like the reason I don't go to that other site. To me it is very beneficial to have an appealing looking set of speakers in the room.

Hey Gary you married, if so how long :D Sure sound is the number one, but when I place a speaker in "the living area" it has to meet the approval of the wife. The man cave she could careless. We have been married a long time and sometimes its so much cheaper to keep them happy. :scholar:
 
Wow...what did I miss here fellas? Looks like some kind of hell broke loose.

When I said "different strokes"...that was a nice way, to remind the group everyone is entitled to their own opinion and/or preference.

I don't see much more reason to keep this thread going. Anyone have anything more to contribute to this topic?

My divorce lawyer told me more than once, that if I killed my ex instead of getting a divorce, (1) my defense lawyer would cost less than he does, (2) I'd be out of jail before too long and (3) I would still have all my money! So it may not always be cheaper to keep them happy, especially if you aren't. :scholar:


CD, this thread has good entertainment valiue.
 
I think they look nice, though they tend to clash with the dark floor. They would blend better in a lighter room. And if they sound good, then they blend even better.

I like tall speakers covered in socks (Acoustat 2+2). And they sound great, often surprising visitors. I have had more than one look behind them, wondering where the sound was coming from.
