Apparently they do album release parties there. I Google Lens-ed the photo and the horn at the top seems to be an Altec Lansing theater unit.

        Not according to u/ocinn though. I want to hear more about his drama because I want to build one of these.

        Probably true but I have to agree with ocinn - it sounds good at a price punching way above it’s output.

        Whatever they paid for that system you could have a much better sounding system for less.

        He clings to old stories and pushes aesthetics over function and overcharges for it. Snake oil is a perfectly apt description and although everyone can agree there’s a lot of it to go around in the hifi community, Devon is an especially low brow offender of it.

        He’s a business / marketing guy selling himself as an audio wizard when nothing could be further from reality.

          It doesn’t sound good lol. It sounds fine.

          Eavesdrop in Brooklyn sounds 5000x better. Why? Because they used Danley SH60s which are actually designed by a real engineer 👷‍♀️

        It sounds safe. Treble roll-off so that nothing sounds abrasive and, sadly, not much in the way of micro details/texture.

      Seriously, I feel like I am going crazy. These speakers are designed by a fashion designer with absolutely no knowledge about engineering or acoustics and he gets praised here like he is some kind of messiah. Is this sub about high fidelity equipment or not?
