Ferguson Hill Horn Loudspeakers

Filed under: Gadgets

If I walked into someone's home and saw these babies hanging out in the corner I really don't know what I'd think, other than making a mental note not to stand too close in case somebody would accidentally hit the power switch on the stereo system. They're Ferguson Hill Horn Loudspeakers, and although their enormous horn shape and clear acrylic construction are definitely impressive from a visual standpoint, sound quality leaves something to be desired for some. I'd take the sites suggestion of getting a demonstration before you buy, especially considering the price tag is a whopping $19,916.

Beolab 9 Speakers from Bang & Olufsen

Filed under: Gadgets

Be it for music or a movie, I'm a sucker for beautiful high-tech sound. And when it comes to the speakers that the awesome sound comes from, well they might as well be beautiful and high-tech too.

Gorgeous is a subjective term, but I must say that these Beolab 9 speakers from Bang & Olufsen aren't too shabby in the "looks" department. That works out nice because the outward design (although they are available in your choice of four colors) is largely based on maximizing performance. But they're also stacked with a long list of high-tech specs and fancy features, which makes the Beolab 9 speakers a very nice mix of form meets function.

This speaker system from Morel is part of the Israel-based company's foray into the consumer market.The Morel Applause MKII SoundSpot 5.1 Speaker System is the company's top-of-the-line system for home theaters.

The speakers can handle 120 watts of sound. The speakers are set on circular mounting plates that can either be screwed onto a wall, placed on a suitable flat surface, or mounted on the speaker stands. There is a SoundSub 9 100-watt powered subwoofer that has a 20-inch diameter with a curved black MDF enclosure. The speakers require 40 hours of "break-in" time in order to hit maximum performance. The set includes five SA-2 satellite speakers, SoundSub 9 subwoofer, two speaker stands, subwoofer speaker stand, subwoofer wall/ceiling connection bracket and user's manual. It's an Amazon exclusive and sells for $2,599 and it also comes in white which makes the speakers look a bit like badly-proportioned snowmen.
