Navin,

I had speakers in the living room. They were 26 inches x 12 inches x 16 inches big. She actually said that these were about as large as she could stand.

I used to live in an apartment. When I lived in an apartment, I had a small set of speakers and a very good set of headphones.

Its a luxury of living in a separate house, which is actually a bit big for us now. But when we had two kids it was not. Now the kids have moved away(one is in Massachusetts and the other is in South Bend, IN, when he's not off in Germany doing research---which he is now), I have a lot more room to move around.

I should consider myself lucky then. My present speakers are a bit bigger and they are in our bedroom (she did not want them in the living room).
Subs: 18" high, 30" wide, 18" deep (about 4.5 cu. ft).
Sats: 18" highx 8" wide, 18" deep (about 2 cu. ft).
Sat (with XO inside) stand: 9"

Iâ€™ve been working on a set of Hartley Concertmasters for over 8 months now:

- 24 inch subwoofer 224HS
- 10 inch midrange 220MSG
- 7 inch 207MSG
- DT-8 â€œsupertweeterâ€
- Cheery Veneer with wenge hardwood accents
- Hand machined and polished banana plug plates with sandblasted text
- 1.5 inch wall thickness weighing about 300+ lbs per cabinet

Almost ready for a test run. Take a look at the attached picture and let me know your thoughts

I think they are awesome. The cherry finish looks nice.

Simply amazing.
Look awsome..... but those Hartley....still under production?

v-bro · 21st May 2007, 07:47 PM

Wow is that you? Either you're very small or these speakers are really big

They do look very good!

What's that thingy in the middle of the sub where the dustcap normally is?

New, hand-made Hartleys are still being produced out of NC.
