cooool!

I wonder wonder wonder if they will suck... I think not, but who knows!

Quote:

Steinway & Sons might be best known for their pianos … some of the finest in the world … but now they're looking to get into the living rooms of really rich guys who don't play piano in addition to those who do. Hence their new "Model D" stereo system, a half-ton, $150,000 behemoth that's probably nicer than whatever iPod dock you're currently using as a stereo. It's really classed up by the piano lacquer that it's finished with, and only 100 will be made. Hurry now, before they run out!

I want...but alas, a simple college budget cannot get such aural bliss. Actually, for that price range, I'd probably start looking at Ferrari's before I look at speakers. I am a fan of the Italian V8 symphony. But I'd still love to hear those one day and see if they sound anywhere near as good as their pianos.

Bosendorfer has been making speakers for a while.

I rather stick with their piano, much cheaper and much better

I've seen that design before, but I can't think of the brand. Most likely someone designed them for Steinway. Its that tweeter arrangement that I've seen.

They look a bit like a Bill Duddleson (Legacy Audio) design, but I suspect they are not his work.

repost...

the tweeter set up is something like a mtm design..common and old..but great for setup and sound.

remind me of the Dyna temp speakers...

According to Stereophile, it's the work of Peter Lyngdorf.

Daaaaamn. Those are some sexy speakers. Yes, insanely priced, but wow, looking good steinway.

So all I have to do is take out a HELOC on my house? sweeeeet!

 

[Schalldampfer]

I wish these companies just stuck to their own area of expertise and really focused down on it...

NO STEINWAY!

Now we'll have to look up when we walk by an audio salon.
