  • Available in solid Maple and Walnut, Grovemade’s new speakers look as interesting as they sound.
    The nautilus-looking hole up top is the business end of what audio engineers call a back-loaded (or rear-loaded) horn design. The idea is to extend bass presence and depth by reinforcing the low frequencies coming from the back of a smaller driver like the 2-inch full range driver at use here. The use of a 2-inch full-range driver creates a speaker with really good stereo effects and imaging properties.
    The Amp portion of this system uses a 25-watt per channel digital amplifier, and is outfitted with only one set of analog RCA inputs. Modified binding posts link to the speakers thanks to included cloth-covered speaker cables.

    They look nice, but the line down the middle really put me off.

    Beautiful wood enclosures! The only thing wrong is the nasty looking joint between the two halves. need some work on that for high end look.

    The glue line though.. Urgh..

      These look like budget 30$ plastic / plywood crap.

    Interesting t-line enclosure for a tiny speaker.

      Thats not a t line. Did you not even listen to what the guy said? That's not even what a transmission line enclosure looks like... it's a folded horn.

    i like em, only the black parts are little bit of faded black, if it was more pure and shiny that would be better i think

    Please add a link in your videos for the products. It would make checking these out so much easier.

      @bert smith Oh understood. The "lol" made it sound as if I posted this when it was D/C. I apologize for the attitude sent back. Thanks for the update

    That grill is about acoustically transparent as a cheese grater . Looks like a Fountek FR58EX 2 inch Neodymium Full Range Speaker , which is ok, but that Chinesium childs toy radio amp.....Other that that, I love the design.

    • @sethh8892
      @sethh8892 Před 5 lety

      That was not neodymium magnet at all.

    Change the connector on the bottom, not on the back...

  • @kangarooshorts7275
    @kangarooshorts7275 Před 7 lety

    CNC time plus gluing, soldering, and the making of the amp puts us at 200$ per pair to make?

    Wait til someone makes a speaker out of a Coconut shell. I bet that already has happened.

    "Solders all the parts" Lmfao, just looks to me like a 15 dollar ebay speaker amp!

  • @Skipzilla01
    @Skipzilla01 Před 7 lety +5

    the speaker is too warm? and not enough sizzle? hoping for more sparkle? Are you just looking around your dressing table when you wrote this narration?

      Really annoying presentation, but that's the trend. Confuse the sheeps so that they believe buying something that seems too complicated to them will make them less stupid.

    Lets put bloody 10awg cable on it, cus' you know... that's more audio-phileeyyy 'n' junk.

    • @111chicane
      @111chicane Před 7 lety +1

      Mitch King Exactly what I thought! And same applies to those gold plated banana plugs. All that is to justify the price, which is ridiculous. Those are speakers for hipsters.

    Im so sad they stoped making these

  • @ashitanojoe69
    @ashitanojoe69 Před 7 lety

    そんなに悪くない、問題はデザイン(特に金属台の出力部の穴)と木製枠の継ぎ目が特に。 幾らですか?
    それから手作り部は無いことからクラフトマンシップとはいえませんね。

    @linkeddevices Před 5 lety

    this has been done a million times. it's also called the kef 2001 egg. except they're worth their money because they're actually made of solid 7000 series aluminum versus wood

  • @Akashpagol

    Wait, you said not made in China?
    Order placed!

  • @HaimPeretz

    600$?! WTF?!
    Only Apple's fanboy buy this

    • @jonathanhiener2463
      @jonathanhiener2463 Před 7 lety +2

      Haim Peretz Why? They are unique speakers...you must not be aware of the vast world of audio, where speakers can get INCREDIBLY expensive. Also not every audiophile is an Apple fanboy, don't know where you got that one...

    • @newENIO11
      @newENIO11 Před 7 lety +3

      lol for less than half of that money you can buy something from audioengine which i assume according to their specifications would smoke these overpriced novelty item sq wise. and i reckon looks much better and durable.

    • @111chicane

      Hipsters would buy them too. Just to listen to Acid Pauli while drinking coffee with coconut milk.

    • @michaelkelly3158
      @michaelkelly3158 Před 6 lety +1

      $600 is nothing for a unique, machined, hand assembled and finished item like this. I'm doing something similar, and I'm looking to charge about the same after all my costs and time spent making them is considered. Things get expensive when they're not mass produced and Chinese-manufactured.

    • @speakersr-lyefaudio6830
      @speakersr-lyefaudio6830 Před 5 lety +1

      I agree I can make a proper T-line for stereo setup by hand for 100$ give or take.

  • @itskagiso

    These look good but I hated the way they sounded

  • @EasyFold007
    @EasyFold007 Před 7 lety +3

    Not really worth the price if you take the word "meticulously" into consideration...

  • @Aco747lyte
    @Aco747lyte Před 3 lety

    I would very much appreciate not seeing the join showing where the two halves meet. It's unsightly, and detracts from the otherwise outstanding design of these speakers. Just seeing that join puts me off from buying them, because when I pay good money for the best, I expect the product to look fantastic in every way. And the cable at the rear..get rid of it and replace it with decent cable.
    You should take a serious look at Paul Klipsch's folded horn enclosures and see it you could better his designs...which I doubt. I am disappointed.
