Apogee Acoustics

Saw this pair of Scintillas on Audiogon. if you have young kids, this is surely a good idea. Plexi-Scintillas!!!:)

Non-plexi pic is gratuitous - just cos they look nice, really.

Appreciate the compliments...

yes, those are very pretty speakers.

did you move them into another room?
iirc you had them in a room with a fireplace before...

aren't they a little close to the back wall?


cheers, christoph

Anyone any idea how the perspex attaches to the speaker to make it secure? Assuming it isn't just leaning against it that is.

For as much as I understand it's 'folded'.

This is the same room, they're just on a solid back wall now. This isn't the listening position rather it's the resting position. When listening, i pull them out about 3.75 feet from the rear wall and put them about 6.5 feet apart and I sit about 8-10' away.

I didn't come up with the idea for these covers, I saw someone else that had some made for their stages in Susan's old photo album (lost the link a while ago). I sent the pictures to a local plastic shop and gave them the measurements of my speakers and they were able to make me a set. Total cost was around $250 or so. Since the scintilla has a natural angle, the back part will hang off so I use tape to hold the two sides together (wrapping a piece around the side of the speaker.

Could you post the contact information of the plastic shop?
