Still, they’re far from underpriced…
They’re up for what he gave me in p/x so I can’t see him taking less than that for them.
I got them from a guy who had owned them from new and used them in his studio, he was a guitarist in some 70’s prog band called Argent.
Not Russ Ballard ?
rings a bell, he’s still playing/touring and said he setup his own band after Argent then went solo since then.
Nice guy but was a proper old rocker.
Decent bloke who I met in the early 80s. I really liked most of Argent’s output but they did tend to be too commercial for me…
After a bit of google photos it was actually John Verity
Ah, so a little later. Still…
Wtf is wrong with women?
Tbf, even I think they are a bit too visually challenged. I see from google images though it is possible to get them in a more cosmetically acceptable state. They also look fucking massive. I’ll do some research.
So far I’m most interested in the Heco Direkt although I’ve not yet found anyone who has them as close to the front wall as I would. They also have an “interesting” look, but if they’re ok that close to the wall at least they won’t stick out into the room too much.
Direkts have the ports underneath so can go right up against the wall. I had mine about 5mm from the back wall in the corners and sounded great
Excellent, thanks.
Good man, go get a demo and get it done.
This of course leaves @thebiglebowski JBLs open for @Spenagio to swoop in and get these delivered and set up the weekend when Vik is away.
I so want a livestream for when she returns and claps eyes on them for the first time. You can stay at mine for as long as it takes to blow over
Can he bring his new speakers?
I think @ThePurpleOne also had a pair of Direkts close to the wall
He’ll have to.
Terms of divorce, Vik gets the house and the kids, @Spenagio gets the L300s
Hopefully there’ll be a new production run of Direkts arriving in Nov. I’ve reserved a few pairs.
Do you know if they’re planning any changes to their appearance?
I think Al @spacehopper has his Direkts relatively close to a wall. I’m sure he’ll chime in, in a bit.
I’m guessing it is just the 2 ways?
Didn’t realise they were still making them. How wonderful
Looks like we’ll be converting that basement of yours then….which reminds me, need to come and have a look.
Hilarious, as I was visualising them in our bay window earlier today, with Vik or one of the girls putting their foot through the bass driver as they lean over to close the curtains. Oh, how we would chuckle.
