"Abierto" -- which means "open" in Spanish.

Or "Sesame" -- as in "open sesame"


Yeah I like the Aperto that I had mentioned in my first post in this thread - its Italian for "open" - I think either of these are nice names.

I agree, "Aperto" is pretty good especially since my parents were born and raised in Italy and I have visited there several times.  I love the sound of Italian.  These speakers do not look "American" for sure.  These speakers are unique, at least in looks, with an exotic yet conservative, classy flair to them.  Some "exotic" name like from the South Pacific or Caribbean would not fit but something European would.  I like the French "Le Reve".  This means "The Dream" and is a well known term from an artistic and musical standpoint.  According to Wikipedia, Picasso painted "Le Reve", Zola wrote a novel by that name and, since I just returned from a trip to Vegas, there is a "Le Reve" show playing at the Wynn.  I also know that a famous tenor aria from Massenet's opera "Manon" is known as "Le Reve".  The dream.  Maybe it is a dream come true for Jim.  But I bet this speaker will be a dream come true for the lucky owners.

How about Salk Karma for the incredible impression they made showgoers this past weekend at the AK Fest?   :thumb:

Thanks for putting that list together.
You missed Gateway

Kahuna means priest but can mean sorcerer
The Big Kahuna, that's right

My first thought was “Air”, but that is already taken, so how about these….

“Malibu Stacy” (for the Simpsons fans….the design of this doll was changed after some kid poked her eye out….use your imagination as they are “pointy”)

“Salk Buy One Get One Free” (just thinking out loud here guys)

I’m not creative, but I thought I’d give it a shot.  Now I’ll just wait for my SongTowers to be finished.

Joking aside I like “WindSong” and “Portal” equally the best.

karma or karman (kär`mə, kär`mən), [Skt.,=action, work, or ritual], basic concept common to Hinduism Hinduism (hin`d

The doctrine of karma states that one's state in this life is a result of actions (both physical and mental) in past incarnations, and action in this life can determine one's destiny in future incarnations. Karma is a natural, impersonal law of moral cause and effect and has no connection with the idea of a supreme power that decrees punishment or forgiveness of sins.

How about combining the "clarity" name with "portal's?"  They could be called the Clarity Portal's.  Clarity is the line and Portal's is the speaker design.   aa

Nuance, you should get some points just for your super cute little girl.  One of these days I'll not be so lazy and get my girls as an avatar.  They are little cuties too. :D
