Those speakers are crazy, love it.
There were just a pair on eBay, if I was feeling more frivolous or were drunk, I might have bid on them. I'd have trouble putting them in corners of any of our rooms though.

This post just made me spend money. Not on speakers, but for that LEGO set which I didn’t know existed. My daughter will love when she opens it on her birthday.A gift from my wife for my studio, a pair of Paradigm Mini Monitor Bookshelf Speakers. I loved her a little bit more that day

Lol my dream speakers too are the L100’s, man just so sexy! I almost pulled the trigger several times on music Direct and paid the 4 grand for them only to balk because I do love my Wharfdale Denton’s but I was listening to Slum Villages Fantastic Volume 2 and I keep getting this Nasty Feed back on Raise it up which has me thinking maybe now is the time to splurge on the L100’s.

If you did buy them I'd be a jealous man, that's for sure!
Those tweeters are giving me Bioshock vibes. Now I want them, too.

Speaker porn huh? Can't speak for the sound on all of these, but here are some favs based on looks.
I honestly have been impressed with everything Rosso Fiorentino makes, but this finish looks even more stunning in real life.
Zu's Walnut also looks excellent both in photos and in person. I haven't seen the Soul Supreme in person, but I'm partial to this shape/layout visually.
If you haven't picked up on the theme yet, I love me some walnut...
How do you dress up some walnut... maybe with a nice marble base
But we can't overlook some of the more exotic woods as well...

Zus finishes look way better in person than online.

Totally agree. Their build quality is impressive, and it's obvious that they are being built by true craftsmen vs factory workers.
Those are Dynaco A-25s and they are very warm sounding. Quite enjoyable. I've spent many hours listening to them as my brother had a pair. The stands are aftermarket.
They were very well built. The 10 inch woofer has a rubber surround, so they aren't prone to rot as a foam surround certainly will over time.
The Dynaco logo is often missing from the linen grill cloth but inexpensive aftermarket reproductions are available.
Second hand ones seem reasonably priced, too. Once I have a bit more space to house them, I'll seriously look into getting a pair.
The cabinets often show damage (ring stains from drinks etc). They are veneered though and can be refinished.
They were not expensive new ($160/pair) but were the proverbial "giant killer" of their time.
Thanks for taking the time to give me a bit more insight on these. I appreciate it.

Don’t be jealous because the hell i’d Catch from my fiancé would be epic trust me. In fact I’d probably have to move in with you anyway so you’d enjoy the speakers too lol

Those stands look a lot like the ones I had fabricated for my Fortes.
