Thanks you for introducing speaker in my room. I'm happy to recording and listening to it :)

[@Jayiyagi]

Thank You for allowing me to film and listen in your wonderful studio. Was fun!

[@newdevilman1167]

Great job and effort flying over to Korea!! There are many small brands that need the attention that is worthwhile to introduce to the rest of the world from Korea. Admire your hard works!! Well done!!

[@rg6556]

There's another amazing "upcoming" Korean speaker brand called Orchestalls HiFi by KMD Engineering Co. It got great presses when they exhibited their speakers for the first time in US during Axpona 2022. I was truly impressed as well. That brand started as an engineer father's & musician son's passion project and have been developed over many years. If you're still in Korea and have a chance, perhaps is worth researching/visiting that brand as well.

[@analogkid4557]

SB acoustics make great drivers. I have those Bliesma tweeters in my studio monitors. I am using Dayton subwoofers with Purifi low mid and Tang Band 2" soft dome hi mid. Super low distortion at 105 db. Below .4% from 28 hz to 20khz.

[@philbert9117]

Very interesting. The speakers look nice and I love the wave guide on the tweeter. Please keep us posted!

[@rickp6731]

Seoul Korea is where the new KMD 700R, 600R, and 500R Speakers are made too! Major-Breakthrough! Jay what ever you do don't go listen to these KMD Speakers until you have the money to buy them right after you have listened to them because these KMD 700R Speakers touch your Soul 😇

[@jcisme]

I am in Australia and have been considering the KH310a's.. This 3 way looks great.. I want !

[@juliangst]

Really nice speakers. I also appreciate that he is using a 3 channel Hypex plate amp which has state of the art performance and really nice DSP functionality. Really hope that he'll be successful and be able to sell them worldwide (like Buchardt audio for example)

[@eddylam224]

A studio and setup that is birthed from resourcefulness 💪

[@greganikin7003]

Curently doing a project with Bliesma speakers… heard lots of good reviews

[@robvandendolder3157]

Wow Jay it must have been satisfying to go back to Korea and see the calibre of audio systems. I did like the look of those speakers and look forward to seeing how they perform in your space. My wife and I have a pair of March Audio Purify speakers with a matching pair of class D purify monobloc amplifiers for one of our rooms and were surprised how good the system sounded. It’s not surprising your Korean friends like the purify drivers. Great video. Another Korean company Aurender make awesome streamers. Thanks Jay enjoyed the video 😎👍

[@FOH3663]

Very cool you were impressed with the bass playback. Small sealed designs like this are ideally suited to active DSP'd Linkwitz Transform EQ'ing to overcome the modest box volume ... so no surprise the bass was well extended and controlled. The caveat being (there's always a compromise!) the extra thermal load on the voice coil that must be dissipated ... which manifests in subtle compression effects across the full operational range of the driver. Smart design, ie., target a current successful monitor design, and elevate the performance even higher.

[@cashmerecat9269]

SB Acoustic is from Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia. Yay!!!

[@realitytunnel]

Jay, if you've never heard active speakers which are musical and can do bass before these, you need to check out the speakers which started it all and listen to a pair of Meridian DSP...

[@marcgabor9690]

You could do a series on studio monitors. There's plenty of good stuff out there from Genelec, Dynaudio, Adam, Meyer, etc...

[@NoodlesNJ1]

I'm a new subsriber and really value this kids opinions, I have alot of the same Equipment.

[@CalvinMOfficial]

Interesting, hopefully they come to the UK market also! DV247, Thomann etc

[@Mark-rw3kw]

Jay, you seem to have the Studio Monitor version with you in Canada. What about the MTM design with side woofer? Do you have that one? I think that one would be of interest to most people.

[@Jayiyagi]

I do not have it in Canada. I think you are mistaking it with some other brand?

[@Bloozestringer]

@@Jayiyagi I think they may be talking about the white ones that are showing to your link.

[@garyalph]

Hi Jay thank you for introducing us to a new exciting product from Korea. You described near the end about the bass coming from the sealed cabinet. I am curious how these would compare to another amazing product here in Canada that you reviewed some time ago. The Gershman studio 2. A speaker that is also a sealed cabinet that is capable of recreating very low bass frequencies. Interesting they too are designed and tuned by an engineer in a studio recording environment. Great work as always on this video.

[@tcsbymail]

Please do a review of the Courbé Audio speaker system. They are also made in Korea.

[@nuxboxen]

I love this video, it fills my heart with so much joy to see the four of you sharing such unbelievable passion for sound.

[@Jayiyagi]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@meutubedou]

Looks like a mix of Audioengine 5+ bluetooth speakers (wave guide) and JBL’s S38II 3-Way 8-Mirror Image Bookshelf Speakers .. Almost exactly the same..

[@draztiqmeshaz6226]

I was going to say a Neumann KH 310 and Barefoot Micromain 27. If he was just recreating these for his studio, mad props.

[@kleinkalibar7486]

That's pretty much a 1:1 copy of the Neumann KH 310

[@datbaguettedoe6436]

How do these compare to the A8H you recently reviewed?

[@grungemax]

What are those two cubes in the front near the laptop?

[@ssadams]

I would love to see them here in Canada and/or North America 👍

[@18i]

these looks pretty awesome, great driver selection, i can personally vouch for SB acoustics Satori drivers, run some 6.5" mids in the car and they really are some of the best drivers out there in low distortion, volume, wide frequency range and musical!

[@ThomasL]

BlieSma speakers have utterly brilliant reputation, so I'm not surprised you like their dome tweeter.

[@HeavyBeats24]

That umbro fleece is very fire :)

[@charlesnr]

Thomas has his own tube amp. Jay can have a limited custom version of the studio monitor.

[@djhmax09]

jay can I buy your first single when it comes out? 😉

[@RandySmith-iz1ml]

Hi Jay, since I live in Hong Kong and don't speak Korean, I'm American, just wondering if these speakers would be attainable here and what info is available for them, like you would get from most speakers on the market, and what would the cost be? Thanks, nice video. I haven't been back to Korea since I lived there for a year in 81'. Nice video.

[@PhillRS]

Is he able to ship speakers to the US?

[@MisterJDee]

Can I buy these speakers in Korea?

[@word2RG]

dude, that was awesome!

[@doulos5322]

So asain clones of barefoots and Neumann k310s how very innovative whens the behringer models come out?

[@radekpoboril374]

Dear Jay, can you suggest some bookshelf speakers which will be placed close to the wall with their back? I was looking for CSS Criton 1TD-X Kit but have a fear that I can't place them close to the wall.. room size is 4m*2,5m*2,3m Thanks, Radek.

[@alfredobusiello5227]

have they published any measurement ?

[@newdevilman1167]

I don't think they started selling officially yet. Jay's coverage is the first ever for the brand.

[@Jayiyagi]

Yes they have professional measurements using klippel somewhere on the net. I have the measurements as well and will post when it becomes relevant to do so when his speakers hit the market :)

[@Pete.across.the.street]

I got stuck in the subway there. Couldn't find how to get out. I guess the charge when you leave and not when you enter?

[@Jayiyagi]

😂 same. The subway became even more crazy than 10 years ago

[@jatsajatsa]

Tell me about it! I was out shopping for vegetables today and there was one of those those experts in the checkout queue, in front of me, raving on about these speakers. The cashier asked him to stop because he was disturbing the other customers but he said he just couldn’t. Audiophiles eh? What a crazy bunch.

[@zackpetrovic3029]

Plans?

[@BobMetcalf]

Hi Jay - thanks for the info! How do you think they compare with the Dynaudio Heritage Specials?

[@Jayiyagi]

very different since these are active speakers meant for accuracy. I am also in a studio setting in an unfamiliar environment away from home so this is not a full on review. Consider a teaser product ;)

[@themetatron0000]

The Amek looks alright

[@mariokolenko4322]

Whats with your ttrip to GR research?

[@alfa0mega74]

why dont you show specs?

[@bleem98]

he is god

[@akosalbertoszabo]

ETA on hitting US market?

[@Jayiyagi]

There is no set date. They want to do it as soon as possible but do it right. Getting studio engineers recognition in korea is not easy at all. This is an accomplishment on its own and speaks volume to the speakers’ capabilities

[@silverbackag9790]

@@Jayiyagi eta on hitting the Korean market? I’ll be back in Seoul for 3-4 months in February.

[@michaeld4502]

What is the cost in us currency?

[@Jayiyagi]

it is expected to be pretty low compared to speakers of similar performance and pedigree but they do not know 100 percent yet since they have no yet made the models public yet.

[@michaeld4502]

@@Jayiyagi when you say low??? Do you know Dollar range? When will they hit the market?

HI Jay Howdy they compare to the Dynaudio Heritage Specials?

[@daveturner2484]

Neumann is pronounced Noy-man, as in Soy sauce or Roy Rogers

[@hiskingdom_island3882]

In Korea, and I always pronounce neumann as noi-man. There was a mispronunciation during the interview. Sorry.😅

[@randalllawkin]

wait is he Japanese? Or speaking Japanese?

[@marcusbrsp]

So they still wearing the face diaper there.

[@howard5992]

Probably wash their hands too ... SMH

[@newdevilman1167]

Koreans are extremely cautious. Because of the yellow dust from China, Koreans have been wearing them before covid pandemic. So right now, they no longer require to wear them outside, but almost everyone wears them. Let's see how they do after this month as it is no longer mandatory to wear a mask at all. My bet is at least half of them will still wear them.

[@seong-an]
