Who says speakers
have to be square or rectangular? Certainly not the folks at high-end audio
manufacturer Eclipse, which has just released some details of its next ovoid
speakers, the egg-shaped Time Domain 510 series (TD510). The new series of diminutive
speakers, which follows in the footsteps of the acclaimed TD512 series. Despite
their size, these are audio heavyweights, with many Eclipse predecessors in use
in sound studios and by musicians including Brian Eno and John Williams. The
egg-shape is no novelty either. Traditional box-type enclosures of wood or
plastic result in a “coloured and warmed” sound by the flapping panels and
resonances within. The TD510’s design, composed of mineral-loaded resin,
provides an accurate signal from the drive unit by preventing any masking of
the audio signal. There are more tech specs here but what you may want to
consider is that two of these wee eggs will set you back around £1,200.
