Owners of speakers by obscure companies chime in

Feastrex is made in Japan, imported to USA by Lotus Group. Full range drivers of unique design and exceptional quality. Mind bending performance. Full range with Feastrex means 50Hz - 20kHz flat, point source, lightweight paper driver, gigantic motor, leather surround, ultra revealing, yet musical and highly satisfying. This is the musical fountain, what many experienced audiophiles have been looking for.

Only a few pairs been sold in US so far, but the owners are ecstatic. Threads on Asylum and elsewhere are the only significant buzz in English language. Some people are buying just the drivers and building their own cabinets. I wish more people could hear this. There would be a lot more used speakers listed on A'gon...

Keep your ears peeled for this one... I am just a satisfied customer, no other relation to mfg or importer.

Aggielaw,

It's definitely not the water as you well know ;). BTW, You will be happy to know that our own little brewery here, La Porte's Backroad Brewery (dot.com) has a new ale called Specialty Ale (green label) that is absolutely wonderful. When people come to audition, we get them so drunk - everything sounds great. Presto! Instant sale!

Actually, it's word of mouth and auditions through our gracious customer base that provide the listening experience. PM us to find out about our Traveler's Rebate Program if flying to La Porte for a listen.

We hope to generate interest through our first large-scale public exhibit at AKFest this coming weekend. We hope to see you all!

I agree with several of the above, SP TECH and Bob have made loudspeakers that portray the event exactly as it should be in regards to what a chain of electronics and Transducers can do. I can't think of another loudspeaker that can best the SP TECH Minis, which are the bottom of the line. As many of you know, I have owned upwards of 30 pairs and many from the big boys. Sp Tech should be as big as any of the others, Bob is one of the best, most communicative and knowledgeable of anyone that you could buy Audio stuff from. Still Obscure but moving up in the charts!

The speakers being mentioned are not obscure
They get a lot of attention these days and deservedly so

I have a pair of Ridge Street Sasons that are making beautiful music. I'm officially removing myself from the speaker merry go around

I do have to give Kudo's to another speaker designer that would fall into this category Tony M at Tonian Acoustics
If you have a chance hear some of his designs

Kudo's to Robert Steve and Tony
Robert i'm glad your showing the Sasons at the Akfest let us know how that goes

I have to add Tetra from Canada. I have their smaller ones and heard their top of the line very good sound. They are never mentioned online.

I've heard the great sound come out of Audiokinesis smaller floorstanders. These guys are very new/undiscoverd.

Not sure about Trelja list.... Thiel/B&W = unknown?

04-28-08: Trelja
Zu surely is an obscure company. A few others I'd like to suggest are B&W, Focal, Thiel, Vandersteen, and Wilson.

.... must be obvious sarcasm?

I guess this (question has to be stated in context not known by whom? BestBuy shoppers or Audio Enthusiasts?
