Audiosmile acquires ZeroGain

Rob, the kids would like to get their hands on those tweeters.

I just find it interesting that heavyweights like Philips are entering the market. Those speakers may sound like crap but I suspect not (cost about £800)...Philips have massive buying power for components.
 
Rob, Simon,

Seems to me that the aquisition, re-brand and hopefully, re-invigoration of this forum is an excellent idea and I wish you the best with it.

Caipirinhas on me when you're next around this way...
 
I wish Audiosmile-Zerogain well.

I hope we can increase the traffic and the quality of sensible posting.

I approve of the science led approach.

There's nothing wrong with 79 strand!
 
I take it that all long-term ZG members get a free pair of Audiosmile speakers by way of thanks for their loyalty?
 
Unlike elsewhere, I hope people don't need a bribe to post here.

(This stance subject to change when AudioSmile bring out a speaker with a proper 15" bass driver.)

Please direct me to these bribing sites. Thx.

Hi Markus,

Can't help on that front but there is work afoot on a Spendor BC1 sized system, using damped thin-wall construction but with better sensitivity than those old designs.

8" bass driver most likely.
 
Good to see a great forum revived. A few years ago, Simon gave me lots of good advice via ZG when I was clueless as to which speakers to buy; but it was an article by Rob that convinced me to go down the electrostatic route. So thanks guys and all the best.

Thanks for the comments.

Which statics did you go for?

Quad 57's. I play them in a small room, set right up against the back wall, driven by 25W of class A solid state amplification, played at low volumes, listening position is about 4 feet away; basically everything that I'd been told not to do with 57's and yet they sound superb!!:D
