lol... just like the PS3... I love it when the designers get their own way over the suits.
Indeed - the complete function-over-form of the X9 appeals hugely to my life-long fascination with engineering (not that I'm an engineer - my job is the polar opposite). The beauty is in in the engineering itself. :)Quote:

I don't think it's all that bad, personally. Certainly I'd happily take one off the hands of some poor soul who finds it too ugly for them...
Lol, I think it comes under the banner of 'functional elegance' :)
Actually, it looks somewhat EMT-like, but lacks the former's old-school 'industrial chic'...

Rob's little Kolts in situ, sounding rather sweet too. :)

They remind me very much of my old ProAc Super Tablettes in many ways - not a huge amount of heft but quite lovely on stuff like acoustic piano and vocals. Doing a bit of trawling the www it now appears they share the same SEAS driver as the ProAcs. No surprise then really. :)
Yup, same Seas 11F-GX mid bass as the Mk1 Tablette :)

We've just had a dedicated music room built though (it's behind where I'm standing taking the photo) which is where the piano will go eventually. :)
Only problem at the moment is that the screed/plaster is taking an age to dry due to the cold & damp weather. :(
