burke & hazeldentags: miscellanea
THE MUNDANE just as often insulates as it inspires, the latter being the case for interior designer Lisa Burke and ex-graffiti artist Matt Hazelden. Opulent Louis XV beds, armoires and wingback chairs are irrevocably mutilated with joyful glee. In collaboration with other pop artists, each piece is made to order and is therefore as much about being different as it is about being creative.

They are called the Control Now speakers and they are priced at around $250 each ($280 for an outdoor version). The Control NOW speakers feature a quarter-round shape which means the speakers can be mounted between a ceiling and a wall or between two walls, or horizontally/ vertically on the bookshelf, a few examples of how these speakers can be used you can see in the image below. The 8-Ohm speakers offer a frequency response from 80 Hz to 30 KHz, and can handle up to 300 Watts at peak, although 150 Watts is a more realistic maximum power. The speakers offer an integrated 2000 Hz crossover that divides the work between the main drivers and the 3/4-inch high-frequency horn, and they feature removable push terminals for connecting speaker cabling.
