    Exotic speakers too good to be true? Nirvana ??

    Audio Nirvana DIY Full Range Speaker kits, Open Baffle Speakers, Vacuum Tube Amps. 6-15 inches. The world's best full range speakers.


    they claim to be the best speaker you will ever listen to. and the 6.5'' drivers are only $98 a pair 8O

    They are all full range requiring NO crossover....

    these would be INCREDIBLY simple to build...

    anyone heard them ? heard of them ??

    what do you guys think ??

            Well the ones I have heard just don't have the top end that a decent 2 way has. I just like having a tweeter.

                Do they sell them out of a white van?

                I don't know of any company that would say, "look, these are the WORST speakers out there... but buy them anyway!"

                    lets not forget about "Zu" , a modern respectable speaker.

                      I checked out Zu, thier speakers seem of a similar design.

                      And the Fostex website seems identicle to the nirvana website... so it looks like fostex does use nirvana speakers...

                      I didn't know they where the biggest speaker manufacturer in the world... and mostly OEM speakers.... I wonder if my stock Subaru speakers are fostex ???

                      I really hope they sound better than those :lol:

                            I'm sure there is absolutely no distorting when the speaker plays a 50Hz bass note and a 10KHZ sound at the same time.

                              These look interesting, I've enjoyed the full-range drivers I've played with. Not fodder for the typical HT crowd, though.
