For sale is a one-of-a-kind pair of Hawthorne Audio OBsession Reference Monitors in very good condition. Here’s a chance to grab one of the last speakers Hawthorne Audio made.
These gorgeous copper leaf speakers are an open baffle monitor which is very rare. They are crowned with the incomparable Beyma TPL-150 AMT tweeter which are $339 each. You’ll definitely need a good sub or two with these speakers. The dimensions are approximately 20" tall x 10.5" wide x 11" deep with a sensitivity in the mid 90's and an 8ohm nominal impedance. A simple second order crossover is used that includes Sonicaps.
These speakers employ a variable L-Pad that allows for adjusting the highs to the listener’s preference. Beyma manufactures the 5" drivers. Tube connectors are employed instead of banana plugs. The rear speaker grilles aren’t removable.
What sets the OBsession apart is their unbelievable sense of clarity. These speakers are super clean, crystal clear, and extraordinarily precise with haunting imaging. They capture the music with an incredible sense of realism. Additionally, the dynamics are on a completely different level. The transients alone are worth the price of admission. That tweeter is ridiculous!
Price is $995 plus shipping.
