Any news on those new Kudos X2's, that made a sensation a few weeks ago in a HiFi show?
Any news on those new Kudos X2's, that made a sensation a few weeks ago in a HiFi show?
LOL! Glad so many people enjoyed the sounds we made - Word seems to have got around.
Anyway, Derek from Kudos has assured me that most Kudos dealers in the UK should have a demo pair before Christmas.
For those who don't know what the Kudos X2 looks like........ Here you go, the walnut ones we had at the show: http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/9748/p10608581.jpg
In the picture, it's sitting next to the well known C20 - Probably up until now, our most popular Kudos model. You maybe familiar with it, so you can work out how diminutive the X2 is. If not, the most similar floor standing speaker size-wise I can think of is the Neat Motive 2.
Available finishes as far as I know are Maple, Cherry, Rosenut, Walnut, Oak, Satin Black and White. I'm pretty sure Rosewood, Piano Black and White will be available to special order for a premium.
The cost of the standard finish X2s was projected to be £1299.00 last time I spoke to Derek and the grilles will be available, should people want them. (Most people I've spoken to so far wouldn't want to use them anyway!)
The idea was to keep the cost of the speaker as low as possible, so offering the grilles as an add on if people wanted them meant the X2s could stay below the very important £1300.00 price point IMHO
Hope this helps and do give your Kudos dealer a call to ensure you can have a listen when they arrive.

I think the neat motive 2 look better, and why is £1300 very important?
The price of the X-2 has now been fixed at £1350.
Maybe we need the grumpy old men thread. But I do agree. Mind you, even the postman failed on Friday.
