I've only heard them at DC10 in Ibiza few years ago,and they sounded simply amazing.

I guess you'll need a sub.

Cor, lummy.

Not exactly a single driver speaker, though. ;-)

Had some fantastic nights there. Fond memories of mooning at planes outside the next morning. My mate got kicked out for talking to his own knee.

There is a sentence we don't here much anymore.

One of the best clubs and parties on the island the last few years i've been.

Now..everything looks like a shopping centre :-(

Back to the Voids....i wish i had a proper room to let them breathe properly.

I've also contact the seller..

I like the phase plug on the middle one. It resembles the legendary 'pawn horn' of which there are very few in existence. Void acoustics are better known in the PA field.

I like the look of them but I dont know anything about them.

The mid bass horn (if that's what the larger of the 3 is) throat looks on the large side - unless there's an 18" driver in there and the horn rather too short... Not really much horn loading going on there I would think, regardless of size and driver. Hard to get an idea of scale so I looked around.

Used atop of a mid bass channel and then a sub arrangement. So top part of a 5 way. As NSM says in a venue / PA application.

The back boxes have an almost nautical or submariner look to them.

Ideally for imaging and cohesion they should be lined up one on top of each other. I tried it like this way back, as a plonk down having just made the first set and vertical is def better for normal room hifi. Mid bass, treble, mid is the way to go. Hence most commercial hifi and serious DIY efforts do it that way...

I can see why they have done it like this as PA top 3 channels though - the stack gets too high otherwise and as they are the top 3 channels and will be used at distance in venues it will work just fine.

Not heard them so reserve judgement. They look a lot better than most PA efforts I've seen and have awards etc

You'd need a really big room to get them to work I think
