2024 wrap update
Last year didn’t involve much sitting around, so here’s a synopsis to prove it. We’ve now got two new products, an enormous manufacturing facility, and a space to share and call Ours.
As you may know we added Flare to the lineup, our now smallest offering - and something that certainly didn’t happen overnight. We’re known for our powerful and immersive presentation, which had to be embedded into Flare, totally non-negotiable. The result is a relatively compact loudspeaker that features a massive circular waveguide cast from bronze, elegantly extending beyond a low-tuned reflex cabinet housing a high-excursion 8” mid-bass driver - powered by an external 500w drive unit for each pair of Flares. To quote the bloke who walked into our HiFi show room and sat down expecting more of the same mundane ‘yeah fuck me’ - if that means anything to you. Shown in American Oak Black Japan.
Then @tom_fereday thought we should do something for Melbourne design week. Doesn’t have to be anything too crazy, just cast a whole speaker from aluminium and integrate the same constant-directivity performance like we do for all our other speakers, just don’t have any direct radiating transducers ruin the form! We’re certainly not experts at pattern making, but got a whole heap better on this project. 8 patterns later and four sand cast aluminium pieces come together to form Cast, a 3-way full range loudspeaker for use as either a single or in multiple units. Hand finished and exactingly tuned for smooth response and tonal balance. It may be made out of aluminium yet this is not our first rodeo, someone in the comments said ‘yeah like that’s gonna sound good’ - lol, wanna bet?
We rounded out the year with a handful of great install jobs both local and abroad - with Superwax Mini deliveries to the Greek Islands, LA, Sydney, and Flares to Singapore and Hobart, just to name a few.
If you’re thinking about making a purchase the trip to Hobart is now even more worth it as we’re showing everything @ours.hobart plus you’ll get to experience @sonny.hobart @ogee.hobart @restaurantmaria_ and rest at @ogee.guesthouse! Or stay up all night in front of Exhibition 30’s at @therealtwistedlime!
