I listened to these at their showroom and yup, they are more balanced than the Liionidas. They are no joke and I was really impressed. I will be reviewing them in a few months.

[@Koru-Health]

I thought those drivers looked familiar. Looking forward to your review.

[@sickjohnson]

Cool Thomas, they must be new...can't find anything on them online besides their website?

[@FukemStudios]

Looking forward to your review.😃

[@AudiophileJunkie]

I got to keep an eye out for your review. Glad you're one of the ones getting a pair and will give reliable info

[@alexiheaka1074]

They look smaller than the Liionidas. I wonder what the dimensions are.

[@hificave]

They look great!! Good job Maco. I WILL be visiting your show room to hear these.

[@user-od9iz9cv1w]

The Lii Song Drivers in granite could be a game changer. Those drivers have been getting some traction since Lii Song Canada opened shop recently. Great price point as well.

[@user-mz6lt2pr9s]

A nice looking pair of speakers

[@FukemStudios]

Got to have these😁 Maco got my dollor😆

[@aaronlam2584]

Look Very well make and interesting speakers 😎👍

[@fullranger3435]

If I remember well, this 12 inch wide ranger goes up only to 15 kHz. Its definitely high to very high efficiency, due to the big cones/big magnets, but certainly not the fastest wide rangers around. Detail and nuance may suffer but they'll be nice, engaging, easy-listening all-rounders for sure.

[@stevedeharde2712]

Bingo!

[@FukemStudios]

Wow interesting 🤔 Thanks for the info. Im a RadioHead addict, I need speed, Detail and nuance.

[@CollectingRetro]

The crossover loses too much efficiency unfortunately. I love running the F-15s with low powered triodes for certain music. I also have some separately powered bass augmentation.

[@fullranger3435]

@@CollectingRetro in fact, I do not understand the decision for a second 12inch woofer, if you have to use a cross over, unless it's only on the the woofer. You may also try this configuration crossoverless, if you have the room compensate for the over-presentation of a spectrum area, serviced by both big cones. If you have or want to use a crossover, a smaller fullranger, combined with two 12inch, or one 15 inch woofers would seem a better choice, theoretically. But perhaps they found something in the wideranger and woofer cones to be of the same size.

[@Audiofreak71]

These are very interesting and nice looking. Impressive using granite with the open baffle , I’d be very interested in giving them a listen and the price point is very appealing.

[@JamesWilliams-gf8gm]

Looks amazing

[@apt3503]

Interesting! I will be looking for them in the future to listen to.

[@stevedeharde2712]

I tested that driver in some of my prototypes. It measures very poorly and only plays to about 14K. It is also too heavy and slow to give good detail in the midrange. They are not very expensive drivers as well. So by my calculations, they are about $1200 for the drivers and $13800 for two slabs of granite.

[@AudiophileJunkie]

I may get a demo tomorrow. I've heard great drivers sound terrible and cheaper drivers sound great, so you never know for sure. I was very impressed by the cabinet thickness and aesthetic touches.

[@penangtv6108]

Are the drivers AlNiCo? thanks

[@eosare]

@@AudiophileJunkie seems like u know maco....

[@backrack01]

I see they are offering a 40% VIP discount for people who sign up for $1. They have prices on there but its hard to tell if those prices are before or after the discount. If they are the before prices these would be an incredible deal..

[@VEC7ORlt]

Those silly cables on risers, lawl.

[@sickjohnson]

Very cool and Canadian too boot eh! Can't wait to see some reviews.

[@AudiophileJunkie]

I may get a demo tomorrow... Stay tuned

[@craigellsworth3952]

Did you say "eh?" Also, get that Johnson looked at.

[@soulnik]

Maybe do a follow-up with an audio clip of these interesting speakers if possible.

[@AudiophileJunkie]

I'm hoping to get an exclusive demo tomorrow

[@randylund4437]

Where on the internet can you find these? Real nice look. I have LRS+. interested to explore these.

[@AudiophileJunkie]

Take a look at the video I did with the designers recently. There's a lot more information.

[@labalo5]

Good prices considering using li audio drivers.

[@Audfile]

Holy moly. But the stamped baskets are suspect.

[@fabieneldridge3414]

I heard the lady say 40% off &14,000.00 , leaves around $8 thousand. It would be nice to hear them !

[@PaoloCaminiti]

Interesting! Any other OB at the show?

[@erics.4113]

Clayton Shaw and Pure Audio Project both had open baffle rooms

[@peerguy]

That is stone? Not MDF or HDF.. wow. The base model in birch at $6500 could be a good deal at 40% off.

[@richarddegannes2928]

Hi, Could you share the link to Maco Speakers? Thanks.

[@AudiophileJunkie]

I just learned about them but maybe freeze frame my video where I captured their QR code for more info.

[@capwkidd]

Gilmore audio makes an open baffle speaker made of stone….

[@DNSWRLD]

Where is the link for this company. ☹

[@AudiophileJunkie]

Try the QR code I captured in the video. I hope to get a demo tomorrow and more info.

[@chrisdinsmore1665]

Couldn't pull up their website doing a search.

[@crazyprayingmantis5596]

How much to ship a pair to Australia? 😂 Granite is a bit of overkill isn't it?

[@AudiophileJunkie]

Nothing is overkill in this hobby 😁

[@fullranger3435]

@@AudiophileJunkie Thanks pal.You just lifted my spirits. My new loudspeakers will take me four years to finish, I recon.

She was in My cousin Vinny!!!

She was! 😂

You win "comment of the day"🤣

Admit it Tex, you just wanted to flirt with the girls there. Not that I blame ya.

Wait...I thought the wanted to flirt with me 😔
