The following top artists and record producers use the Fujitsu-Ten Eclipse Speakers to tell them exactly what’s on the records they make, Simon Rhodes of Abbey Road, Mike Ross-Trevor of Sony Music, Klaus Hiemann of Emile Berliner Studios, and composer and record producer Brian Eno.

I’ve been a huge fan of Eno’s own groundbreaking music from his earliest days with Roxy Music, through Albums such as ‘Another Green World’ to his latest amazing ‘Another Day On Earth’ as well as his fabulous collaborations and productions with David Bowie, Talking Heads, U2 and Robert Wyatt. Here’s what he has to say about Fujitsu-Ten Eclipse speakers: ‘What impressed me more than anything else was how tight the bass was and how absolutely accurate it seemed. There was no hang over of the bass. It seemed very sharp, very short. The bass drum sounded fantastic. In fact I pulled the drummer of the band, who had played in the record I produced, in to listen’. He said, ‘I’ve never heard a bass drum sound like that on a recording. There is something about the very high speed [response to sound reinforcement] of those speakers. I guess, because they’re small speakers; they move very fast and they damp [finish moving] very quickly as well. That seems to be an important part of the sound. They are also very accurate in getting close to the real sound image and the actual positioning of each instrument.’ Read the complete article.

Well I can’t think of a better endorsement than that and, of course, being high speed, single driver speakers, they fit in perfectly with our philosophy here at Sound Galleries. Brian Eno’s comments were based on the original TD512, which has since been superseded by the TD510 model. We have the TD510 as well as the new larger top of the line TD712z model which was recently so highly praised by Robert Deutsch in his Stereophile Review. The smaller TD508 model is also available and we have the very small TD307MKII’s. All of these models from the top TD712z down to the TD307MKII share the same essential qualities, so whatever your requirements you will be able to find a model that suites you. Visit Fujitsu-Ten
