Are you interested in the new generation of "old school" design loudspeakers?


 

So is Danny Richie of GR Research. Though known for his open baffle loudspeaker and subwoofer designs, as well as narrow baffle sealed loudspeakers, Danny has received in for analysis and possible upgrades a number of the new "old school" design loudspeakers that have been recently introduced by the likes of KLH. Being a good businessman, he obviously realized he could offer his own version of such a design, free of the "problems" he found in those of others.

 

In this 30 minute video Danny discusses the design of his newest offering: the "Brute". Even if you’re not interested in this specific topic, you may find the video of value in general loudspeaker terms. He has made many other videos, all addressing either a specific topic, or a specific loudspeaker. There are easy to find: Go onto YouTube and do a search for GR Research.

 

To dispel any suspicions, no, I am in no way affiliated with Danny Richie and/or GR Research, other than being a very satisfied customer.

My speakers are big 3-way "bookshelf" speakers, similar in style/size to the Brute. They are the now 40+ year old Infinity RS-1.5. I came to them after having a series of much more expensive and more modern speakers. I paid $264 for the Infinitys about 5 years ago and haven't had a desire to replace them. They are just so easy to listen to, a truely musical speaker. So nice, so easy. 

I'm thinking about upgrading my turntable. Would it be weird to be using a 40+ year old speaker, that cost $264, with a new, modern turntable that cost $4000+?  I hope so. I like weird...
