I've been a big fan of Shahinian Acoustics' unique polydirectional loudspeakers - particularly the classic Obelisk - for a long time, and this product line has been on my "wish list" for a while now as an audio dealer.

Well, it looks like I may finally have the opportunity to carry Shahinian speakers in my little shop. And given Shahinian's preference not to have a large domestic dealer network (there are only a couple of authorized U.S. retailers at present), I am going to pursue this opportunity vigorously.

For more information about this company's products, follow the link below.

WOW. I haven't heard the Obilisks in years.

The Obelisks have actually been in production for over three decades, during which time they've been continually revised and improved upon...

I just received my very first Shahinian floor models - a pair of Compass loudspeakers. I will refrain from posting my listening impressions until the speakers have broken in a bit, but I must say that the Compasses have already exceeded all of my expectations...

A pair of Super Elfs in Walnut would be way cool! :cool:

I'll be getting my very own pair of Obelisks in another couple of weeks. And I plan on ordering a pair of Arcs for my shop not long after that.

Given that the Compasses, Arcs, and Obelisks together account for 90% of Shahinian's orders, I'll probably restrict myself to these three models for the time being. However, if I were to get enough inquiries about the Super Elf monitors, I'd want to bring these speakers in as well...
