STEREO DIRECTORY & BUYING GUIDE 1975
Loudspeaker / Boxen von 1974
Bei den Lautsprechern und den Lautsprecher-Firmen war es eklatant, die Palette war riesen groß. Wieviele davon wirklich erfolgreich waren, ist nach 40 Jahren nicht mehr schlüssig zu belegen. Nur aus wenigen Garagen-Bastlern ist auch wirklich mal eine größere nenneswerte Firma geworden. Viele sind genauso schnell im Nirwana verschwunden, wie sie auferstanden waren. Von den Europäern und speziell den Deutschen ist in Amerika nie viel zu sehen und zu hören gewesen, auch von BRAUN (= ADS) nicht.
Es "sollen" mal über 800 US-Hersteller gewesen sein ....
Und damit kann jeder Leser erkennen, daß es in den USA damals verdammt schwer war, sich überhaupt landesweit zu positionieren. Zumal das Land gewaltige Ausmaße hat, die wir Deutsche uns auch mit viel Erfahrung und Wissen nur schwer vorstellen können.
Natürlich zählten da die bekannteren amerikanischen Elektronik Firmen mit dazu, denn SAE und McIntosch und Crown hatten alle auch mal mindestens einen Lautsprecher im Programm. Bis sie gemerkt hatten, dieser Markt ist völlig andes als der mit den Verstärkern und sie haben es ganz schnell wieder sein gelassen. The Fisher, Scott und Harmann Kardon hatten recht früh Lautsprecher im Programm, wenn auch nur mittelmäßige. Und dazu gab es von ganz wenigen Großen jede Menge an Lautsprecher-Kits, also Bausätzen, wo immer die her kamen und doch in riesen Mengen geordert wurden. Das war in USA die sehr gängige Mail-Order, sehr ähnlich zu Amazon um 2015 herum. Das waren vor allem Tandy-Radio-Shack und Heathkit.
Diese Selbstbau-Lautsprecher hatten oft mit Hifi nichts mehr zu tun, doch der Kunde war zufrieden, er hatte sie ja selbst gebaut.

- Anmerkung : Die AR-7 war ein Wunder, man konnte einen 2 x 150 Watt Verstärker über Stunden bis zum "geht nicht mehr" aufdrehen, die AR 7 ging einfach nicht lauter und (aber) auch nicht kaputt. Wie alle AR Boxen extrem ineffizient, mit 20 Watt verstärkern überhaupt nicht zu betreiben.

- Anmerkung : Auch dieser AR Lautsprecher verschlang Leistung ohne Ende. Mit der Crown DC-300 A Endstufe ging die beiden in meinem 24qm Wohnraum bereits ganz gut laut, doch klanglich war das alles nichts Berauschendes. Und den Bose 901 Boxen konnten sie zu zweit (klanglich) das Wasser nicht reichen. Hier konnte man ganz deutlich heraushören, daß 4 Hochtöner un d4 Mitteltöner in keiner Weise die Stereo-Ortung oder den Raumklang verbessern, sondern eher im Gegenteil, wie das der Akustik-Fachmann von ELAC aus Kiel auch herausgefunden hatte. Als hochwertige Beschallungs-Lautsprecher für einen Hörsaal an der Uni könnten sie dennoch gute Dienste tun.
