    Anything like the "Watt Puppy"?

    hello, im wondering if theres a system that looks something extremely close to the Watt Puppy. my uncle has a stereo system that he says has ten inch subs-each coupled with a passive radiator(i think), crystal feet, made of one of the hardest woods in the world? im highly unsure but i think it was redwood? and it was bought at around 20k and look extremly close to the Watt Puppy version 5. except im reading that the watt puppy carries 8 inch woofers and is ported? btw as i auditioned, the speakers were kings at soundstage(music only) and depth(music only). And hearing "Watermark" by enya is earth shattering. just a few things i thought about his system. im just wondering if anyone knows such a speaker. thanks for your help!

    And no labels? Genesis made a 5-Series speaker that's sorta similar but I suspect many others chose the WP for copying.

      Yeah, I've seen a few of puppy clones. Some cheap, some not....

      Now the only speakers that looks a little like the Puppy and costs $20k or so is the Von Schweikert VR-5SE and the Jas audio Plato. The Von Schweikert VR-4sr, VR-7 and VR-9 also have that puppy look about them.

      JAS audio, the Chinese hifi manufacturer also make a special speaker - the Plato. Retails at about $20k also. Does look a bit like the puppy, but, well, a lot nicer. Sounds amazing also.
