Kharma Elegance S7-S Signature Loudspeaker, $21,750.00 USD. Side View. |
Let's look at the Kharma Elegance S7-S Signature Loudspeaker.
Appearance is everything, when it comes to el glance, and the Elegance is not without reference to Memorex.
We already discussed the Magico S7. From it's side, it looks much better, the S7-S. There's even the feet got right which Carver, Bob used in his Amazing Line Source Loudspeaker ($23,500.00 USD) on intro - now cheaper. We'd describe "automotive" as the look to this loudspeaker.
Kharma introduced the dB9S ($36,000.00 USD) to audiophile favour, and the db7 ( ), as well. Perhaps this one's for the Mercedes S-Series fanatic, as opposed to the Aston Martin devotee. We'll see.
The look over-all is distinguished. It more a new S600 Pullman than some lament of Maybach. Though a bit short, we have to say we like this look, very well.
The look from the front is unfortunately still a coffin.
Now please don't take this in the wrong way. We were mighty pissed off when the salesman mentioned when we were thinking of buying them, that the Duntech Sovereign 2001 Loudspeaker ($15,000.00 USD) cabinets were good for caskets, after we had gone. For reference, they are off 7 Hz in the frequency range (27Hz-20KHz ±2dB).
What is that thing on front? Is it the wave launch from the B&W 800 Series 801/802 Diamond? Why does it look so good from on-side, and so poor, from on top? :)
It's not without 9 Hz in the frequency spectrum (29 Hz to 30 kHz), the Kharma Elegance S7-S Signature Loudspeaker ($21,750.00 USD).
Coffin for a boffin?
You'd be better off with one.v ™
