Bo Bengtsson is a great man and he has designed loudspeakers for decades. His latest piece costs 2 million dollars.
The headline is "Swedes are building extreme luxury sound equipment".
If you Google "Bo Bengtsson" you will find quite much.

I don't have troubles to believe that these are good. But I don't like homepages with lots of sales **.

I would never put that kind of speakers in a room no matter how big it was, even if I was loaded with cash 🙂
Do any of the larger models even exist? To me they look just like computer renderings all except M1 and M3? Still very interesting products!

But americans like i big
No that would be Texan's. Everybody knows everything in Texas is bigger 🙂
Something to chew on:
Transmission Audio ULTIMATE, specifications:
Number of units for a full stereo 2 channel setup:
Total of 4 Dipole Subwoofers panels, each containing ten (10) pcs of 15" Ultra Class Sub woofer elements. (Total of 40 elements).
Total of 2 Dipole Woofer panels, (one per channel) each containing 24pcs Ultra low distortion 8" Wide band woofers.
Total of 4 Dipole MF/HF ribbon panels (2 per channel)each containing 14 meters of 2" wide ribbons.
(Total of 56 meters ribbon length).
Total of 2 Dipole HF Super ribbon panels (1 per channel)each containing 2 meters of 1" ribbons.
Dimensions:
Sub woofers: Height: 2,1 meter. Width: 1,1 meter. Weight: 450Kg (per dipole)
Woofers....: Height: 2,1 meter. Width: 1,0 meter. Weight: 300Kg (per dipole)
MF/HF.......: Height: 2,1 meter, Width: 1,0 meter. Weight: 250Kg (per dipole)
Super HF..: Height: 2,1 meter, Width: 40 cm. Weight: 125Kg (per dipole)
Power capacity capability: (continuos RMS!):
Sub woofer: 2000 Watt per dipole, 8000 Watt total. (Peak 16000Watt) X-max: 50mm p-p
Woofers..: 1500 Watt per dipole, 3000 Watt total. (Peak 6000 Watt) X-max: 25mm p-p
MF/HF....: 750 Watt per dipole, 3000 Watt total. (Peak 6000 Watt) X-max 16mm p-p
Super HF: 750 Watt per dipole, 1500 Watt total. (Peak 3000 Watt) X-max 8 mm p-p
Total continuos RMS power capacity for 1 complete stereo system: 15.500 Watt.
Max "music power".....................................................................31.000 Watt
Max peak power for 10milliseconds...............................................62.000 Watt
Overall sensitivity: 1 Watt related to 8 Ohm produces +100dB @1 meter on axis.
Max output level (SPL): +143dB at rated power, +146dB at Peak power
Total Distortion @ 100dB SPL: Not measurable.
-"- -"- @ 110dB SPL: Bass: Less than 0,2%, Mid/HF: less than 0.02%
-"- -"- @ 120dB SPL: Bass: Less than 0.5%, Mid/HF: less than 0,05%
Impedance:
Sub woofer section: 8 Ohm nominal
Woofer section.....: 8 Ohm nominal.
Ribbon sections: represent an 8 Ohm load over the entire frequency band within 0.5 Ohm.
Frequency response full system: 15Hz -50kHz (-3dB points)
Crossover points: 80Hz, 800Hz, 8kHz*
* These are all user selectable for optimimal integration with the listening room. Adjustable via electronic X-over unit.
Finish: All units are made from a combination of finest grade Aircraft aluminum, polished red or black Granite for the stands with side trims selectable from Glossy Black Piano finish or selected Rosewood.
Certification of ownership: Every unit has an engraved brass plate with customers name and unit serial number.
WARRANTY: Transmission Audio ULTIMATE comes with an unconditional 10 year warranty on parts/labor for the speaker parts.
Note 1: All systems are produced in house, hand built to customers order, like a Stradivari Violin. Every unit comes in its own separate shipping box, made from hardwood and aluminum, insulated, and dressed with shockabsorbing material and wrapped in silk. All deliveries are from door to door with free shipping and insurance, regardless of location.
Note 2: Upon customers request, TA can assist with the system setup free of charge for a total time of 5 working days.
Number of collies for 1 pair of ULTIMATE: 16 + 8 cartons for the amplifiers. A total of 6 kWatt in
standard setups. Can be delivered in bridge configuration for 12kW RMS output at 8 Ohms.
Delivery time: Within 9 months from order.
Assembly time: 6 months for a complete setup.
Support: Customer has free support for a period of 36 months from delivery date.
The price is for a complete pair with amplifiers, 12 x 500Watt RMS @ 8 Ohms. (BALabo amps)
