Call me crazy but I love sometimes just looking at my speakers and set up...


Hello All,

You know I see all these specially designed and built home movie theaters. And they’re magnificent. And of course they all have in wall speakers. I also understand that most people don’t want to see all of the equipment. But I do. Sometimes I will just look and admire my setup (especially my speakers, but my amp too) even when I’m not listening. That’s why for me looks are very important. I feel like up to a certain point within a speaker manufacturers lineup/range everything looks mostly normal but then after about their mid line things start getting weird, LOL! I’m a lifelong Dynaudio lover and even if cost was no object the highest I’d go is Contour....Even if I were to have a true in home movie theater built I would want the speakers visible...Any of you sometimes just like to look and admire your rig?

Thank you for the great responses! Also thank you for letting me know it's not just me who does this LOL! @prof 100% same. You know I'll walk in the room to grab something and then find myself sitting and gawking for a few minutes even without the system playing. 

You know it's funny but it's sound that matters most (if I didn't love the sound I wouldn't buy), but if I don't like the looks I won't even listen. I guess thankfully (especially considering my funds do have limits) I'm in audio nirvana with my Evokes and Simaudio Titan and don't need anything else :)

 

 

@oddiofyl you made me laugh, I would have never thought it possible for anything other than a woman to look "sexy", but when I first opened the Evokes that's the first comment I made (literally out loud) was "damn they're actually kinda sexy"!🤣
