Shahinian Acoustics Loudspeakers

The Record Shop of Cherry Hill,NJ sells and has sold Shahinian speakers for at least 20 years and has several models on display.They are in the 856 area code--try info for the no. Ask for Gene Cavanaugh,because he is most familiar with the line.

i have owned a pair of obelisk for 20 years. since then i have owned 5 other speakers in various systems. i will always keep the obelisk. the are smooth yet detailed. not the lowest bass reproduction but tight.i am currently using them in a bedroom system with a small tubed amp.actually it's may favorite place to listen. obelisk can be had at a very reasonable price. best of luck

I had a pair of Obelisks for over five years, and traded up to ProAc 2.5's. I have two observations. First, the biggest difference between the Obelisks and the ProAc's is that the Obelisk's woofer is slower, which affects bass transient response. From the lower midrange up, however, the Obelisk is (IMHO) equal to the ProAc. Second, because of the multiple driver array and configuration, positioning the Obelisks to achieve an integrated and tonally accurate soundstage requires a LOT of time and experimentation. Still, if you take the time, this is a wonderful speaker. I really enjoyed them, and (with the aforementioned caveats) can highly recommend them.
