Didn't know that frames can be detached and painted. It's a piece of Hi-Fi and I'm not sure if they are glued or something. Maybe Daniel can tell me more? I couldn't touch them in demo room, when I took a look at them. Nobody mentioned detaching and repainting frames in any of the reviews. I don't know if that would affect the sound quality?
Also, original frames have a rather big logo on them, which looks silly on the picture frame.
Daniel, is it possible to remove original frame and put custom one, or that frame has some function?

Nikola
 
why not get the pine framed speakers and paint or stain the frames to your choice?

I'm looking at them since they were £300 and they are really cool. I listened them in demo room and the sound was really good. They've got excellent marks in What Hi-fi, I think Editor's choice.
So, I wanted to install them in my bedroom and hang on the wall, but SWMBO doesn't like any of the frames on offer (black or pine).
And that's the reason, why they are still in the shop. Battle continues...
You can put any picture in frames, without degrading sound. Technology is developed in army for neutralizing sound inside tanks, but now they decided to get some money bask from the investment in research.
Cheers,
Nik
 
Daniel,
Can you post some photos, please?

The HiFI purists will kill me for this... :-)

I have some Wharfedale Loudpanels in my dining room, and for "background"
type music they are fantastic, i..e. listening when entertaining....

They answered all my criteria for a discrete music source, and guests
usually ask, where the music is coming from!!

If you think about what they are and for the money you can buy them for,
they are a real bargain.. (under 80 from Richer sounds at the moment).

The biggest issue with them is making them look discrete, I installed the
cabling before the room was replastered.

As always you pays your money and takes your choice, Hifi is a really
personal thing, and it is down to each individuals taste!

HTH

Daniel
