I guess when both speakers are included in the pic, they sort of look ok...

I definitely like the aluminum version moreso than the regular wood version of the CLX.

Still, $20K is hard to swallow - for me atleast.

Good to hear they won best in show!

Great stuff as I thought they look much better in "real life". I like 'em. Now I need to figure out how to stretch a few pieces of mylar in between a few bits of metal for less than $20K!!! Off to the drawing board...

Actually, looking at the last shot, they do look kind of wierd / mismatched. The discrepancy between the bass and mid/top panels looks a bit strange. But the long distance first shot looks very cool indeed, so I agree that the aluminium version looks way better than the red - opps - another $5K!

I am only sorry I have to keep moaning about the price...

Ok. Must admit that they do look much much better in pairs

I like the red ones. They would look awesome in my room.

I think that they would be just slightly shorter than my CLS' on SA stands with roughly the same footprint.

I can't wait to hear them!

With the curved wood on the side, they look pretty good. I think a small wood trim piece on the other side would help "frame it".

I believe this sheds a new light on the McIntosh / ML synergy discussion

Must admit when I first pulled up the picture I did not like it.
But then I saw post #50

Notice the curves on the wooden side on this design, now imagine adding another one just like it on the other side, would solve the symmetry issue and it wouldn't be so boxy looking, maybe even sexy.

Anyone good with Photo Shop that could give us an idea of what that might look like??

Great Minds think alike,

But after looking at the photo with both speakers and them being a mirror image of each other with the frames on the out sides I like. Still prefer the curverd or tapered edge over the straight though,

Yeah, it's pretty sad they had to go and design a whole new $20k speaker just to make the macs sound good.

And to think they were also using a Meitner/EMM Labs DIGITAL player for source

Maybe the idea was to show that the CLX can sound great even with sub-par components.

Maybe, but why don't they have the Mac turntable there? Is it THAT good that it could not be included ?

Low blow....

Of course, if you want a frame around the entire speaker, you buy two per channel

They're certainly growing on me - I wish I could be in München!!
