Rauna Liera II

I present the Rauna Liera II. The enclosures are made of concrete.... (yes, that's right.. CONCRETE!!)

I actually auditioned a pair of these (version i) before buying my Sequels back in the late 80's. They sounded GREAT, but couldn't get past the fact that A. They are FUGLY and B. They were HEAVY!

The salesman told me "You can paint them any color you want to". I said, "No amount of paint will make them look good".

Leave it to the wacky Swedes!

I started anally editing the photo and then realized I was doing all this work to make it look like they were part of the scene when it was funnier to have it be completely chopped up

Hi

It wasn´t a huge success in sweden either, but you have to check this out:
http://www.rauna.com/slides/reference.html

"The bass system consists of two 6 meter long bass horns built of bricks and concrete. The opening comes up underneath the couch. The horn has hyperbolic expansion and goes down to 18 Hz; you can’t hear very much down there but it shakes you and the window glass."

This is my first post so I hope it work. I´m very happy to have find this forum, since I´m finally going to change to M-L. I´m going to need some advice but I´ll be back on that topic.

Kind regards

Besides being somewhat of a Frankenstein, they are two pieces. The top portion was added as was the "tweeter" in the center. These are really P.A. speakers for auditoriums and assorted rock bands. They are JBL's version of Altec Voice of the Theater speakers without the mods.
