Unwrapped the Mini Exquisites, but…
That’s as far as we were able to get.
Oh. Yeah. My Daughter is only 23. Oops. Sorry about that last post there sweetie. Well, at least she is still young enough to like people thinking she is older than she really is. Whew! Everybody got a good laugh at the old man’s memory skills.
Here are some unwrapped Minis:
Unwrapping was an exercise in keeping my fingers out the way of Neli’s scissors as she lectures me on being very careful to not scratch the little Exquisites. Happy to say that no blood was spilled by either of Neli, the Mini, or I. [Neli tells me that I am exaggerating and she wasn’t really that way at all, hardly. Yes, everybody, she is wonderful, just wonderful, to unwrap speakers with………]
Yes, they are in Aubergine. The diamond tweeter cover is a magnet! It just sticks on to the front of the speaker to protect the otherwise very delicate tweeter.
Those fingerprints that you see on the cover plates on these totally brand new, just unwrapped speakers are put there by fingers that have just finished eating Vietnamese takeout and whose owner shall remain nameless (but their first name starts with a ‘N’ if you must know, not an ‘M’ ;-))
I’m sure she’ll have it polished up better than ever even before I wake up tomorrow – it is just so much fun now that I finally have photographic evidence that *she* also has fingers that leave prints…:-) 🙂
Wow! I’m surprised you guys are getting Kharmas already…that was quick.
Keep those great pictures coming!

Wow!!! Super congratulations on, on, on……….the birthday! 🙂
It is obvious in the written discription the absolute excitment of receiving and connecting the baby Kharma’s, albeit cold, that you have something special. That is the reason we all are in this hobby, to search for and discover and find……….find that special piece of audio equiptment that can deliver us back to the reasons we first, origionally, got involved in the hobby: the adoration of recorded music.
Again, big congratulations, I can see the smiles from here. 🙂
