Stereophile Cover
Posted by mark.korda@myfairpoint.net on May 23, 2016 at 06:54:43:
Hi, first of all, the latest Stereophile issue was great from page 1 to the last. I read every article and read them again...great stuff....but that cover kept staring at me from the coffee table.
Diamonds are Forever it said in reference to a new B and W speaker. Diamonds are forever made me think of a woman. I'm single but I kept thinking what woman would allow that BW Diamond speaker in their living room decor. Would that Diamond remain forever? I know it must sound fantastic and I'll always want a pair but it looks like Deeters gal pal from Sprockets speaker system.
This made me wonder again if historically there was a certain speaker in our time that re-created the (cave man) and made him find his own cave to listen to critical Hi-fi.
As I look at the advent of the later 50's book shelf speaker systems it seemed that the decor factor like a AR bookshelf system was just as important as the sound factor.
So I ask any of you. what was that speaker?.....Mark Korda
