Loved my jbl studio monitors when i was learning. Stupidly took the fronts off, thought they looked better and my daughter stuck a toy through one. The other I blew when mixing in the red

Nothing, and I mean nothing, sounds better for dance music than this:

Funktion One Dance Stack

Despacio Soundsystem...

one of 7 stacks built by James Murphy from LCD Soundsystem and 2ManyDJs...

looks like they've built something out of the old Eminence book, then bought some extra subs and spent a terrifying amount of money on Mcintosh amps.

i like the idea behind it, hope it sounds alright...

I always get James Murphy (good) mixed up with John Murphy (amazing).

that looks like it was designed by an interior designer rather than an audio designer.

The video makes it look less like a CGI model (which I thought the pic was at first)

No matter how much you spend on amps...it`ll never turn that lot into a " HiFi" in a club. I`ve seen a few threads on the web about it and all the reviews were very negative. GSA did it way better 30 years ago...in fact they could have just splashed out on a new Pioneer GS system if they really wanted that retro NYC look...?

They'd be outdated in 1988, never mind today.

 

[Bassism]

someone will buy them because they have the pioneer logo on them. I think I could easily find out who's design it eacxtly is.It wont be anything spectacular, I would have know about it . You know there are a few good chinese copies various out there x

 

[ska invita]

It's just a RLA/GSA style stack, they've licensed the design from GSA - so similar to the old Ministry rig, Studio 54, Paradise Garage etc. If Pioneer haven't fucked with the design too much I'm sure it'll sound very good, just at an insane markup

'just testing'

This is a new box, I think he's making vintage style speakers and 500w valve amps for sale. His name is Axis, which I guess is Axis sound system in Huddersfield, who have been running a long time. Nice.

 

[ddraig]

lush

 

[ska invita]

Glorious. The problem is when you move boxes this big they get all scratched and messed up - would be nice in a living room though

 

[ddraig]

ai! looks like possibly chipped in top right corner unless light reflection

or bubblewrap every time!

This from a sound man in Australia's Facebook page. Beautiful, must have taken some real work.
