Always tend to go for something just a little different. Whether it is in the drivers themselves or in the design of the cabinet. My basic premise is that the ordinary everyday type plain box design gives you the sound of music coming from a box and not the music itself appearing in your room. And to some degree also the appearance alone, even with the system silent, I like t be able to see it and have that pride of ownership feeling.
Are you open minded about loudspeaker designs?
Or do you tend to pick the same type of loudspeaker design when you upgrade?
