    Heaviest pair of speakers around?

    How about these, weighing in at a mere 1 1/4 tons?

    What is this, a classic case of buyer's remorse? Only one year old? I couldn't even afford the shipping on them. And my friends think I'm loony for building a subwoofer with a Stryke HE15. Heck, that's a mini-system sub in comparison!

    But then, think about ThomasW's system. His 12 IB subs probably weigh even more, considering the enclousre (his house)!

    Regards,

    Jon

        Man, that's nothing, check this out:



        The Grand Enigma System - one of the largest and most exclusive high-end consumer loudspeakers ever made.

        This 12 ton system is fully active with 30kW of amplification, equipped with 24 ultrahigh efficiency planar-magnetic HF-units, 24 15-inch LF drivers and 48 6-inch MF drivers. Placed in a specially prepared subterranean listening room of 45,000 cubic feet, it presents sound with incredible dynamics and limitless power, easily reproducing live concert levels at a distance of 10 meters.

          Paul,
          I didn't want to mention the Grand Enigma because I haven't seen one for sale on Audiogon yet .

            I think that's Thomas's next DIY project. I saw that some time back, simply incredible... Wonder how many they have sold?

            Wonder if the Grand's use Radio Shack crossovers? lol.
