#audiophile #hifi #hifispeakers So here we move from the mine into the factory. Fischer&Fischer loudspeakers are TRULY handmade, not just hand assembled. There IS NO better EXOTIC, High End speaker value that I can find. Enjoy !

Mikey. You do more to promote and demonstrate your brands of choice than the brands themselves and the brands who sell products for 5x the price. Commendabke. I became a member of the tribe yesterday and hope to start building a HiFi rig within the next year or so depending on a few factors. Cheers!

The internal wire and terminations are impressive. There are so many high dollar speakers with cheap spades and high gauge cheap wire. All of these things affect the sound just like the cable and connectors connecting the speakers to the amp. So great to see this company address details that few even see!

Beautiful stuff, Mikey. It’s nice to see a company put that level of love and care in to their products to last a lifetime, instead of all this disposable crap made today with a purposeful shelf life, so you’re eventually forced into buying more when it inevitably breaks down and / or wears out.

Sorry DIYers.......ref 10:20 The 180 uf Mundorf EVo silver , gold ,oil capacitors must be made just for Fischer & Fischer. Parts connexcion and Hi Fi collective only go up to 100 UF ($480 US from parts connexcion.) Mundorf website offers up to 150uf in this capacitor. That section of the crossover EASILY will cost over $1500.00 US.

These speakers are very appealing.. But I haven't seen any externall review (outside DE) and as much as I trust Mickey's opinion , he is biased. How come no other review ???
@OCDHIFiGuyАй бұрын
Are you that naive that you actually believe there is such thing as unbiased reviews ? Wow. Let me open your eyes. Reviewers are paid by companies that receive advertising money from the manufacturer they are reviewing. Lone wolf youtubers are also paid for reviews or given product. In my case, I assess a brand and commit to it wholeheartedly with lots of money and signed legal agreements. So you're absolutely right I'm biased. I married the brand ! So choose your bias. From the guy with NO skin in the brand or the guy who married the brand. Either you trust me as an audio expert that shares your same tastes or you don't. Quit your dependence on paid reviewers to make up your own mind. Come and listen to these speakers then make up your OWN mind. What you are telling me is that all I have to do, is pay some reviewers for you to buy my brand. Lol. Sounds like you own a publishing company. For the group: relying on reviews and not your own experience is the biggest LIE you've ever been taught in HiFi...

I don't care who you are or at what price point you are buying. When you are willing to commit a significant amount of your entertainment dollars on something, that is where an appreciation for quality and a lifelong sentimental attachment to an in-animate object comes from. In this particular case, this is no longer just a speaker, but rather a truly remarkable combination of engineering, craftsmanship and art. I would love to hear a pair of these one day. They may or not be my cup of tea when it comes to sound. that doesn't mean I don't appreciate quality. Hopefully they let you put your initials on the inside for nostalgia.
@OCDHIFiGuyАй бұрын
BINGO. You get it loud and clear... or.. we could have robots cnc cut the speaker from mdf and spray paint it. Not an issue but know what you are buying to help you assess value.
