Take Me To Your Leader

HE 2006

These space-age model K1 speakers from Vivid Audio of South Africa will stop traffic in your listening room. At $20,000/pair in a variety of finishes like the Copper shown here, they may alswo put a stop on your bank account. But for a mere $13,500 you can have the smaller B1, which won't go as low but should leave room in the budget for your choice of subwoofers (Vivid does not yet make one). The setup, like most of those I saw on the first day, was strictly 2-channel. But Vivid also makes the matching, 4-way, C1 center channel for $6500. A smaller center is also available, and smaller stand-mounters are said to be in development for surrounds.

Tom, there's a reflection of the alien-looking left channel speaker in the right channel speaker. All I could think of was the closing of the movie "Signs" - seeing the alien's reflection in the TV. I wouldn't put these things near a corn field.
