I didn't think it possible for OB to be cute, but those are adorable. Makes me want to make a desktop version of mine.

Thanks
I had MJk OB before with Fostex 103 but always wanted H frames to try.
H frames sounds pretty good to me .At the moment using tube amp for top and wintage Teac amp for sub.
For crossover Minidsp.
Im puting together 8 channel Tk2050 amplifier just to make easier playing with minidsp.
At the moment its not 100% setup i want but im happy anyway.
My new DIY OB.

Interesting that Forsman has left his trademark design philosophy...
Speaker looks cool, but I'm a bit worried about the H-baffle around the tweeter. There would be some reflections, diffractions and odd polar response.

Sure StigErik. I was thinking as you. On their other speakers there are a waveguides around tweeter and midtone-speaker. As an entry-model I guess they have made efforts to keep the cost down. Their statement product, the VSS5, has got an cnc-machined solid-wood structure that of-course is immensely expensive to manufacture. And their mid-price-model, the VSS4, has got a more "high-tech/designer" look structure (including waveguides), that at least looks more expensive than their entry-level efforts.

Seeing these... is it just me or does anyone else feel compelled to put on rose coloured glasses, some Jimmy Hendrix, multi coloured flashing lights and fire up a doobie? 🙂
Good to see you posting again Sir. It's been a long time.
Hope you're doing better Nick.

Thanks Bob. Still pretty much the same for me but my interest in the DIY side of things has been re-awakened (although I am still very content with my own OB's). 🙂
