I'll take a pair of #5 please. They'd look kick-ass in my 2Ch room!

Hi

I know the Acapella and the CAT MBX are current. And so is the Magico. I also know the Kharma was a "one-off" .. Doesn't know much about the others ... I have my serious doubt about the sound of many of these .. I did hear the CAT MBX, let it be said that it is not high on my list .. it did elicit some laughters though so I guess it has a purpose.. I also believe there is $1,000,000 version ... of this ..err.. speaker

It would also be very nice to know how many of each have been produced.

If I had to have either, I would pick either 9 or 7....I'd probably lean towards 7, because I've always liked the Tidal sound.

How I miss those times when SOTA speakers cost only $25,000 or so, yet then, very few could afford it. Then came the $75,000 range, then $100,000, and now $300,000 and more. Is the economy doing that well globally? LOL

Just because one could build a speaker with umpteen drivers and multiple towers, does not necessary mean one should.

I have no doubt there is a niche group that will get any of these gems, I am happily parked and enjoying my setup :)
