    Yep. Similar pricing to the Living Voice products too. Not in my budget range, but certainly inspires some ideas I can take myself for DIY purposes.

    This LV system can be heard any time for the price of a coffee. Its a music venue, restaurant and studio in London with a custom system. They'll let you play your own material too if you ask nicely sometimes...

    Went to a mini-meet last Friday. The sound was anything but "mini".

    99dB/1w/1m, max rms power - 1000w

    Doesn't have the typical PA sound.

    Maybe not porn but I quite like the look of my new horn based speakers.

    I should post a pic of my Yamahas (very similar look to those JBLs) sat on top of the Peavey subs :)

    That's my bedroom at home, but when college starts back up they are going in my dorm.

    When I was in college, that would have been slightly excessive in a dorm room but you'd have had competition. Double Advents w/supertweeter or Klipschorns were the big dogs.

    Today, sadly, you're on the far end of the bell curve. Yes, I am old.

    Horns absolutely can sound like a PA system, but if done right, keeping in mind how often live music uses efficient horn speakers, horn dynamics and presence is addicting. More horn porn welcome.

    Since the thread title is speaker porn, are you sure it ain’t:

    “Horny Mr. Smith”?

    Like the classy wood finish

    We're recording this week, the studio has Barefoot MicroMain27 monitors. The detail throughout the full frequency range is pretty amazing. Listening to playback nearfield I can distinctly hear simultaneous notes from the lower registers on my double bass and the low tuned kick drum. I think the bass depth and detail of these speakers may be the most impressive part, but I'm a little bass biased, especially in recording. My pic isn't great, but I wanted to get the 60's 2" master reel machine in the frame too.
