Introduction
Where handcrafted perfection meets music passion
To design and create beautiful and unique loudspeakers, Sculptured Sound looked to the past for inspiration. Classic form with a ‘retro’ modern twist should see this complex curved design fit right in with both modern and classic decor.
Named the Stratosphere 57, these high-fidelity loudspeakers take inspirational design hints from the beautiful lines of classic motor-launches, the gorgeous sweeping curves of the Bugatti 57-SC (sports coupe) and world-famous and very collectable 1957 Fender Stratocaster guitar.
History
As a qualified timber boat builder, a designer and fine cabinet/furniture maker, I had a great opportunity to build beautiful boats for two of the finest and arguably best-known creators of high-end British Audio in the late 80's and early 90's. This was a special privilege for me as I was also a well-seasoned hi-fi enthusiast.
For a while I also ran a small cabinet making business and was contracted to manufacture loudspeaker cabinets for another well-known UK loudspeaker brand. I later sold this business and decided to move to Australia and follow my passion for yacht design and boat building.
Whilst living in Australia I setup a boat building company where we specialised in classic and retro boat design and construction. Our unique motor launches (above) sold both nationally and internationally to a very discerning niche market.
Many years later and after relocating to New Zealand, I decided to follow my hi-fi passion once again and in particular to design and build high fidelity loudspeakers. With traditional woodworking skills, a passion for sound quality and a love for modern/classic design, Sculptured Sound has set out to develop a very special loudspeaker. This loudspeaker had to be both unique and beautiful, and extremely musical.
Introducing the new Stratosphere 57 loudspeakers. One could say, ‘where the complex art of boat-building and the science of speaker construction seamlessly come together.’
