Beau comme un camion

[Coles]

Grosse claque esthétique de la journée (esthétique car pas écouté) il fait partie des nouveautés présentées au salon de Munich.
C'est apparemment une demande du marché asiatique d'électroniques sans compromis.

J'attends une photo in situ qui permettra de voir l'échelle de ce monstre, il paraît qu'il est énoooorme.

[Luxmanu]

C’est les specs d’un MF SA-470 de 1988, dont la plupart des exemplaires sont au pays du soleil levant.
97 kg
2x250 W en classe A
504,000 Μf……
Visible et écoutable sur le vert dans la grotte, ou chez mon voisin avec 2 A370.

Et au passage pour les collectionneurs en herbe, un coffret SPU.

[Coles]

On a vu mieux ou pire mais belle bête.  

[adol]

Je me demande comment ils le placent par rapport à leur autre ammli géant, format tour, le Colosseus. Pou l'avoir écouté, il était très très loin des splendeurs de Gryphon à la belle époque, je crains donc très logiquement le pire...

[Coles]

Difficile de porter un jugement pour l'instant, sortie prévue dernier trimestre 2011.
