Hey, those look like the stuff. "The sound is unusually unrestricted and open with a 3-dimensional, almost holographic spatial representation and neutral tonal balance." If there is a word in that sentence that actually means something, I'll send you a nice big bottle of this, Tina:

Cool!

Nice piece of writing Tina, I like to hear some vicious lyrics over an upbeat tune. Good stuff. I’ll be interested to hear your ballad :)

Thanks Tina....yeah, I hated the song too, but was just playing around and for some wierd reason thought of doing a rock ballad version of I will survive :) Video was just some stuff from open source videos cobbled together with Windows Movie maker.
Yep.....Poppa can sure play guitar! :agree:

T’is a great version, Willy. The song has a great chord structure that has been re-hashed on a million other tracks.

But this version is my fav’.

i had no idea there were great alternative versions of this song i only remember jimmy somervilles & he gave me the creeps!
that bass line is too funky for this forum!!... my hips felt like theyd been hotwired!

This is the best band I’ve heard doing it:

I can’t see what Tony linked to because of some stupid copyright thingy, hope it’s not the same thing…

T'is, Teryeah - but mine was the studio v. I even love the guit solo that seems to frighten old people and cats.

D’oh!

The final guitar ‘solo’ with its’ nagging feel is fantastic :laugh:

Yup, teryeah. It's a killer. I've seen proud fretmen reduced to incontinent wrecks in their efforts to appreciate it;-)

Oh, I understood you were kidding when I saw the price tag for the speakers, Tina. :)

The bigger question is how you would even find them for purchase. I know the distributor (who happens to be my mastering guy too)… and these things are totally odd ball rare. How do you even know how much they are? Only point, they are not specially made as studio monitors.
