Pictures of Iconic Mfg.'s Demo Room @ the Great Plains AudioFest in Tulsa 04/30/05!


Hello friends,

Here are some pic's of Iconic's demo room at the Great Plains AudioFest in Tulsa (April 30, 2005):

Here's a view from the hallway (we were right in front of the elevator's):

Here's a view from the far side of the room. The STONEHENGE V's were our showcase items:

Here's another view of the demo table (kind of dark - sorry):

A closer view of one of the STONHENGE V systems (also kind of dark):

A close-up of some of the static items we displayed. In the far right foreground is the MODEL 704-8A with it's newly re-designed - and much improved - magnetic structure. The far right top unit is a Model 127-8A 12" direct radiator woofer. To it's left at the top is the Model 168-8A 16" Hi-Fidelity Woofer, and to the left front is a Model 145-8A Large Format Compression Driver with a Pascalite diaphragm. In the far left top corner is the Model 165-8G 16" Bass Horn Driver. Oh - and that's an Altec Model 711A FM Receiver from 1965 powering the Stonehenge V's - everyone loved it, and how NICE it sounded!:

Another shot from the far end of the demo area. Note the Ella triode (tube) amp we tested (wonderful!):

The STONEHENGE V's sounded EXCELLENT - very transparent and effortless in their ability to reproduce even the slightest nuances in the program material!

"The Bass Is Back!"

When playing the 4th cut of the soundtrack from "Star Trek - The Motion Picture", you could FEEL the 52" bass drum as the percussionist played it the Jerry Goldsmith score! Whenever anyone heard it, their eyes would get wide and a big smile would come upon their face - it was impressive!

My sons and a friend went around for about 3 hours looking and listening to the systems and the comments from the attendees. According to their reports, most everyone thought the Stonehenge V's with their 704-8A's were the best sounding speakers there, followed closely by Dr. Earl Geddes' new loudspeaker system .

We had a good time and met a lot of nice people, and are looking forward to the next show - perhaps the Chicago Horn Club and/or the Rocky Mtn. AudioFest in Denver.
