Technics SB-R1 Reference Speakers


Has anyone heard these speakers? I know they are probably more popular over seas, and not a whole lot of info or reviews here, but hoping someone has heard them and what your thoughts were?

Read quite a bit on these!
They seem outstanding!,
160lbs a piece!  No cheap stuff here!!
congrats!

Buy some of those long speaker covers for them, when not in use, take care of those, will last a long time!

Nice!,!
Hi George,

Yes I did see that, but that is priced as “each”, they just did not display that.
The Panasonic showroom at Umekita Osaka is my must go place every time I visit Japan.  I currently own Eidolon Diamond and YG Haileys and my reference monitors are the SBC700.  A friend of mine bought the R1 after he borrowed my C700s for a month and he's been real happy 2 years ownership and counting.
