Vienna Acoustics also used a sloped baffle design.
Red herring lost in a forest of speakers, memories
Hello all you 'goners, I need some help.
I have been racking my brain, computer and internet connection trying to remember a speaker that seemed to strike a chord with me a while back, well at least the review I had read did.
Unfortunately I have had no luck in retracing my memory or steps treaded online and have been going a bit crazy since I cannot remember the name or even the speaker manufacturer... which makes it a little tough to find again in spite of my best efforts. I had found it inadvertently, I believe in another audio chat room(cannot remember which one) while I was doing some research on potential speaker upgrades.
Anyway, I will tell you what I do recall and hopefully with those pieces somebody will be able to put it all together and tell me the name of the speaker and manufacturer.
Well, it was a floorstanding speaker with fairly small dimensions as well as footprints, being upright it had a traditional rectangular look(which is my taste), although it may have been slightly slanted or angled backwards, in fact I think it probably was. Also I believe it was front-ported near the bottom of the speaker. FWIW, In the review I had read it was colored, perhaps painted a very rich and "woody" brown maybe a "coffee" color if you will. Of course there may be other colors available as well. I hope that makes sense.
Anyway, I am not sure, but I think the manufacturer had the word "acoustic" or "acoustics" in its name, although it is not Totem, Aerial or Silverline Acoustics. The model may have been something like the C5 or CS5(but not a center-channel)and had a suggested retail of either $6,995 or $7,995 well at least somewhere in that price range at the time of the reviews writing a few years ago.
Thinking back, I believe I read about it on the Stereophile website after I had Googled it, getting the name from another audio chatroom. I think it, the speaker was introduced with positive reviews at some audio show back in 2005, give or take a few years. I have spent hours scouring the Stereophile site looking for that review but have had no luck.
It may not be the best speaker in the world or even a good one for that matter(I haven't yet heard it), but it has struck my fancy and I have become my namesake, obsessed in trying to find it as the aesthetics and sonic potentials appealed to me.
Well, now you know what I know as best as I can remember it, any thoughts or ideas would be much appreciated as they would be very helpful to my sanity.
Thanks.
