CES 2013 most amazing bargain find


Check out a no compromise digitally activated bookshelf for a silly price deputed at this years CES 2013. It really is a leave no stones left no unturned approach to a desktop loudspeaker. The constrained layer damping and the drive units themselves already more than justify the price and its seems like the DSP, wireless connectivity, fully balanaced DAC topology with switchable filters and latest nCore inspired Hypex modules are thrown in for free. I really hope there are more details about the speakers such as the dimensions, digital connectivity on the website (www.moosaudio.com) though.
I wouldn't mind if they release a flagship version of it in the future with bigger drivers and nCore amplification along with better styled cabinet.
Meridian better watch out! This speaker offers way better connectivity, DSP, drivers, dacs and similar cabinets at 1/3 of the price of your bookshelf offering!

I hope one day Magico will offer the option of wireless integrated no compromise speakers such as these. I have really taken a liking to Magico's all aluminum cabinets and cutting edge drive units but you can easily swap the expensive crossovers for a way superior DSP active implementation. I bet the amplification, DSP, DACs and wireless connectivity cost just as much if not lesser than the overbuilt crossovers in Magico loudspeakers. I find passive crossovers such a waste of resources! Good ones are so expensive and also so difficult to do right.

What are your views on this? I am simply astounded at what is offered here. I have actually not seen anything like this and especially at this price!

just found out about these guys a couple of days ago. Very intriguing, the drivers used are top notch scan speaks. If the digital crossovers/amps are decent, this should be an incredible speaker at what can only be called a bargain price. Not sure about the cabinet quality, but the internal parts alone look like they could form the basis of a ground up custom built aluminum enclosure that would be awesome. Wish their website had more details/info/pictures....
