17 lakhs for what.. 
What they are smoking is worse than what they are making.

"Two 741 active sub-woofer having 12 inches drivers."
I have never seen a reputable company use such language/writing to describe their system. Their "local" accent is showing.
I wouldn't pay 1700 rupees for this.

741- It is said to be the Angel Signal waiting just for you Indian Audiophiles.
Implementing the concept of seperating frequency spectrum of sound by placing the woofer, tweeters and midrange drivers seperately around you to enjoy a larger than life music experience. Redefining the way music can be reproduced in homes with their stylish yet functional seperate component audio solution with a premium touch and feel of leather.
If you love headphone sound but hate wearing them then simply buy this system to get the headphone feel in your room. That's the core idea of spending Rs.17 lakhs.
Does matter, doesn't matter if it is theoretically correct or not, they just made it. It's not science but the maker's dream behind it. That dream design was first transferred to a toothpick model and took over 20 years to become a full scale functional model.
An appropriate April Fool's Day Audio Launch.
That 'Your Home theatre Wale Bhaiyya"
YouTuber lost whatever credibility he had by promoting such unworthy products.

You guys are so negative!
You are biased against our Indian products.
You will rave about "phoren" junk but will not support our talented homegrown talent.
You see all the gold accents that don't contribute to sound but have nothing to say about what really matters - the sonics.
This is a western conspiracy and Saul Marantz' soul is behind this in an attempt to demean our age old "kalchar".
If a paltry 17 lakhs seems like too much for you, don't buy it, you cheapskates.
Now, excusez-moi while I run out to buy a box of toothpicks for my next big inspiration.

741 to Bose - Hold my bear!
During the exhibition, I spoke with the owner and specifically asked him whether its a 2 ch. or a surround system as I was under the wrongful impression that the tweeters were actually rear speakers.
Listened to Sade - Smooth Operator, the imaging suffered heavily due to "Comb filter" effect, similar to what one hears in a rickshaw / car where speakers are firing from various directions.

You described it quite right.
Thats exactly what i heard too and was out in 30 secs.
17 lakhs is pretty steep for not wanting to use headphones! Wonder what problem the 741 Audio founders are trying to solve. Besides, many would use headphones not just for audio, but also for the sense of intimacy the headphones offer with music.

The best part to me starts at 03.44. I am 100% sure, he just wanted to troll the show.
I heard this today, is it a con job, not sure. It was just ok, not great - and definitely not worth the asking, but the big drawback to me, was the positioning of the drivers. They insisted that the the tweeters have to be to the sides of the head at the listening position - like 5.1 surround speakers, due to their claim of headphone type of sound. Not sure, how many real enthusiasts - (not the BS show off types without any real interest in music which will be the main consumers of this) - will have the room for this, or even the possibility of running cables all over the room for the tweeters. Just a niche product soon to be forgotten imo (like that guy who was selling light bulb type surround speaker system - indigo or something few years ago - saying it is the greatest thing since sliced bread, invested all my life savings in this yada-yada). Also not sure why these guys kept quoting its price saying its taken Dubai by storm - the people in the room kept repeating the price - 17 lac - 20 lac whatever, are listeners in Dubai going to determine what good sound is? There are lot more expensive speakers available in India or Dubai for that matter than this that sound a lot better, and lot more inexpensive speakers than this that sound a lot better as well without all that positioning hassle. Anyways good luck to them - hope they succeed, and refine this product - we definitely need fresh ideas in our hobby.
Cheers,

For excellent sound that won't break the bank, the 5 Star Award Winning Wharfedale Diamond 12.1 Bookshelf Speakers is the one to consider!
