Are These Stone Speakers Really 20,000 Percent Greener than Other Speakers?

Throwing a shape like 20,000 % around seems absurd . Rarely is anything we use in our normal lives 20,000 % more / less / better / worse / whatever than a vie Cartesian product . Yet , AudioMasons arrogate their stone loudspeaker system are20,000 % greenerthan other speakers . earnestly ?

In addition to suitable resonance calibre , the Harlan Fiske Stone used to make their speakers is apparently extremely sustainable . The $ 1146 , 2 - wayComet speakerfeatures 7 - column inch and 1 - column inch drivers , with a frequency reception of 42Hz – 20kHz .

But Treehugger ’s Lloyd Alter is n’t so sell on that idea . First , he points out that their touting of LEED qualification is strage : that ’s by and large for buildings and construction as oppose to consumer products . second , the20,000 % figurecomes primarilyfrom equate the stone encasement of their speaker system to a verbalizer whose inclosure is cast from virgin Al ( though they also calculate the DOE lay aside as well ) . And sure , there are aluminium - encase speakers , but I would n’t call them the de facto standard of audio gear . And lastly , Alter point out that the physical process of cutting and shaping gem is n’t all that fleeceable . The claim to eco - mastery appear to be hype more than anything else .
