Hi,
I am new to the audio world.. my brother was killed in an auto accident and I have 2 savard speakers to sell for the estate.
I have reviewed in Internet and found a lot of information but no connection to anyone that has posted anything for the past couple of years.
Any supporting info would be appreciated. I saw several pics online but none have the configuration of these speakers.
Thanks,
Doug
Badly designed speakers put together by a bunch of amateurs for a local store.
Those look like two cheap woofers, a Heppner mid horn, and two peizos. There isn't a hundred bucks worth of speakers there.
What else would you like to know?
Take any offer you get.
Your neighbors called. They like your music.
I thought Savard sounded familiar.Read this thread.More disappointment I'm afraid Sorry !

I wonder if Todd would consider removing these Savard threads? It seems were one of the few places Google returns with the Savard name so we're actually attracting more people asking about the pieces of junk.

To the OP:
Very sorry to hear about your loss.
Alas, most of the postings various online seem to be ca early 2007 and seemingly by low-number posters, This could lead one to believe that one person was shilling in an effort to drum up interest in a pair they were selling.
In any case, there seem to be several threads on the audiokarma.org site, so I suggest you research there. 'Savard' is rather unique, so you will not have trouble locating the posts, investigating and replying as needed.
Good luck.
OG: Love the brutal honesty!
The info I posted was readily available in the "other" Savard thread.Originally Posted by gearfreak
I wish I could say they are one step above junk....as a 16 year old in high school I could have done a better design.
The Heppner is a diffraction horn. It should be mounted with the long dimension vertical. Note Altec did this in the unit that employs the same horn.
I would also argue against the piezos in the first place. But if you are gonna use them at least have the sense to stack them vertically.
Horrible design. Somebody read what were decent drivers and threw them in a box. Probably all bought due to reviews at McGee Radio.
It simply was a money making operation. Nothing else. Except maybe an ego exercise..."Wow man, I'm a speaker designer and I didn't even go to college"
Last is the motivation for the post. To sell not to keep. This board is a resource for hobbyists, not for sellers to extract top dollar.
Sorry if you think I am rude, I feel it was extremely rude to ask people to work for free in order to make more money. As happens all too often here. And in this case about off topic speakers.
Suggestion ...all posts asking for valuation be deleted immediately if made day of registration.
