Feeler: Cherry wood corner horns

Posts: 11,258
Well I'm moving, and my Soniphase corner horn woofer cabinets don't fit. The cabinets are Klipschorn style, but an improved (and patented) design built right here in the Northwest in fantastic dark Cherry wood. They are currently loaded with custom Soniphase woofers which will be including, and you can probably talk me into including the low-pass crossover for them as well. Horns are roughly 105db sensitive, and have output to 35Hz making them great for music and movies. There would be no mid/high drivers included, but if someone is interested in the woofer cabinets, I'll help you get a nice set-up that matches for the top end at any budget. 3" and 6" motorboards would be included for custom woofer tuning.
Any local interest?

Allow me to ask a very stupid question here: How can speakers that are designed to fit into 90 degree right angle corners "not fit" in any room that has corners, except for rather small-sized bathrooms? Perhaps what you are really saying is that the new place does NOT have a room that can be used as a dedicated listening room?
I don't get it! Most of the rooms in my house are a whopping 12.5 x 8.5 x 11.5 and those would fit, no problem.
Otherwise, good luck with the move.

I forgot to mention that the cabinets also include a matching cherry wood top-hat that makes them look similar to Klipschorns if you like that look.

That was always my assumption too...Allow me to ask a very stupid question here: How can speakers that are designed to fit into 90 degree right angle corners "not fit" in any room that has corners, except for rather small-sized bathrooms?

Got it, an off-center fireplace. I see that now! Not quite enough room on that side. I have an old house which used to have two fireplaces. One is still there in a smallish sitting room. It cuts the room on the diagonal which forced me to put two largish bookshelves (one between the love seat and single seat. The other at right angles to it at the end of the full sized sofa. It took days to place these. After a lot of trial and error I got a strange phenomenon: the Speakers meet at a right angle between them and then bounce off the fireplace to recreate the stereo effect with no reverb or noticeable distortion. The placement should "never" work. But it does! (Been thinking of approaching BOSE with my patented reflecting system. lol).
Go figure. It must be tough to give these up since you've only had them since May and had them custom built?

A true Audiophile would either...
A. Remove the fireplace
or
B. Add on to the house to make such things work!! :-D- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -
Sorry for the slow response... I'm getting a quote back on a smaller, black painted pair of scoop cabinets. I'll then sell the cherry wood corner cabinets at the same to break even. I should have the final numbers by the end of the weekend.
