Do you honestly expect your wife to accept this? It looks like a chimney or a gigantic bong.

Bolzano Villetri speakers from Italy are exotic. Compared to boring names such as Bose, Polk, Klipsch, Energy, Mirage, Axiom, etc., even the name Bolzano Villetri is exotic and sexy. I love the center channel.

The BV 3005 Torre front speakers are listed for $11,400. The street price is $9,210. The BVHF3003 Piazzetta front speakers are listed for $10,000. The street price is $8,000.

I just have to say wow to that.

Someone should start a thread for ugliest speakers. Many of the above speakers are designed more for aesthetic reasons than pure sound quality.

That is not necessarily true. I have listned to some of them at high-end electronic shows sponsored by Stereophile Magazine. They sound unbelievably good. I wish I could own all of them. The problem is that some of them will cost more than the price of your house or your car.

Which ones?

Reference 3.1 speakers from Anthony Gallo Acoustics. Gallo speakers look exotic and sound very good.

^^ Is that a Dynaco ST-70 in the background? Great amp but I don't know about the speaker.

Hammie · 03-17-2009, 03:18 AM

I'd like a few of these, please.

And don't forget the center channel:

JJ · 03-17-2009, 03:24 AM

Ah yes, the McIntosh speakers!
