Hello Hari Sir !
How are you ?
My Speaker has been connected & is on demo @ Churchgate till 1700 today.
If you wish to listen to it - do let me know.
A Visit will be 100 % possible.
I have to pack & move the 'R' out from my friends place this evening.
My 'Resurrection' is a TL with Alain Bernard Ribbon & ATD Woofer.
Since you make TL speakers - this may be an 'interesting' speaker for you to listen to.

I was one of the 4 people who came to listen to it! And loved it! And its gonna be mine soon!
As soon as I can make space in my room, i.e!
The B&W's are not meant for my small listening room. these however will be just swell! Not that the B&W's aren't great... but for small rooms like mine, they are truly an overkill!

Born in 1971....
1971 - (ever since I could recognize things around the house): a pair of DIY speakers (whaferdale cabinets) with 8-inch bass drivers and 5-inch tweeters
1975 - the DIYs took a back seat and were eventually dismantled and the cabinet given off, the drivers were retained, Dad moved to Hi-Q international
1982 - I took the an old driver from the 1971 speakers and made my first mono speaker (in a cardboard box) which I used with my 1-watt DIY amp and a radio
1987 - Rebuilt those 1971 DIY speakers, this time with cabinets made out of discarded apple boxes. These stereo speakers were driven by a DIY amp and DIY cassette player
1996 - Got my current BPL Sanyo 700T floor standers and still have them. Together with the BPL Sanyo 1000T floor standers, they were the best speakers available in the Indian market at the time. They were driven by a BPL Sanyo CWX79 music system (amp/double cassette deck/tuner), a BPL VCD1000 CD Player and a Panasonic RE WS10 Worldspace Radio till the year 2006 when I moved to NAD on New Year's day.

This happened at my place.
The FIRST NON MAGNEPLANAR SPEAKER that I have appreciated in 40 years. And I have heard quite a few at various hi fi shows all over the world.
Cannot understand how nobody came forward before Manav Malvai to want to audition these. Manav surely realised that Mazher would only design a great product. Another smart cookie I met was "Locomotive". He made my rear Maggies work well as front speakers (and to think i had these for 3 years and the idea did not occur to me AT ALL.). With a Rs 23000 spend you get sound like that, you must have "vision" or call it whatever you like.
Back to the Resurrection, the bass from that "miniscule woofer" was really astounding. It felt like a much bigger woofer was in action. The highs were silken. Only a "brain" like Mazher could have put this together. Hats off, sir.
I sold my 5.1 on Mazhers advice, am glad that I followed his advice. Now he is taking me towards a "shelving" which I am sure will work. So folks both my stands are for sale. One from England. The other specially fabricated to specs. Lead & sand filled with imported "toughened" glass shelves, granite base etc etc etc.

Sir,
The Resurrection was not designed by me;
It was just 'commissioned' by me.
It was designed & built in Italy by Mr. Joseph Szall.
p.s. Manav too may not have been prepared for what he was in store for. This is a non commercial - non production loudspeaker - done [designed] to produce big sound in a small room with small drivers;;;[so I think] !!
It is a great speaker - I will miss it when it is gone - however, shall be satisfied to learn that it is going to a house where it will be treated well & shall surely be appreciated.....[that was important to me] !! :clapping:
:yahoo:
Thank You for your time & efforts for the co-ordination of the demo [Suresh] along with Manav & Joshua for coming & listening to my humble offering - how I wish other forum members too would have come & heard the speaker before I had it packed & stored in the warehouse - specially Mr. Hari Iyer [since he makes TL Loudspeakers] !!

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!
