 The hole-filled arch of each speaker
has a soft Santoprene top that can widen or narrow the arch, although
little adjustment is required with technology that projects sound 360
degrees. Comparable in quality to high-end stereo systems, the speakers
compare in price to larger desktop systems.
"This was one of the few entries in the Consumer Electronics
category this year that really made me think 'wow'. I was struck by how
the design takes advantage of a new flat-panel speaker technology to
really push the form beyond the beige-box-on-a-foot look that is typical
of small tabletop speaker systems. Other speakers using this same
technology are also coming on the market, but the Benwin Executive leaps
to the formal refinement level of a second-generation product right out
of the gate."
