Any word on the Beast
« on: 7 Aug 2024, 03:08 am »
I haven’t heard anything in a long time about the Beast.  Just curious if it still in the plans.  I am also curious how big/heavy of a box the beast was going to be.

The main reason we haven't moved forward with the Beast at this time is the availability of the HX800 amps, and now we've got several other projects in the pipeline that are taking up or time/resources. We still plan to but it may be a little while longer before we get there.

Ah ok.  Will it have two complete separate sealed boxes per tower?  That is going to be a beast.

The two lower subwoofers wont need to be sealed separately since they're hooked to single amp and playing the same range but they can be the only separately sealed section will need to be the upper MTM section for the M165 Drivers.

I am looking for an update on the Beast.   My room is massive about 36 feet by 20 with a vaulted ceiling and I am considering the Bully but am very interested in getting something more impactful. 

Thanks,

I asked about that recently. I was highly wanting the Beast. They said it got put on the backburner. One of the components they were sourcing, got discontinued or something and now GR Research is onto new products. So it may never come or may be a very long wait

If Rythmik Audio brings back the HX800 amps then it will be a piece of cake, but right now we really need those amps to make them work out as designed.
