Wargaming.net unveils Project Spitfire blog to chronicle aircraft recovery efforts
A couple of months back we reported on Wargaming.net's plans to recover and preserve a cache of World War II fighter aircraft in Burma. This week the firm unveiled its Project Spitfire blog that aims to chronicle the ongoing effort and drum up a bit of publicity for the company's upcoming World of Warplanes action title. The journal is penned by Tracy Spaight who serves as Wargaming's Director of Special Operations. There are currently four entries, ranging from a historical look at the Spitfire itself to specifics on the aviation archaeology team and updates from the expedition.
Artcoustic reveals Spitfire Venue loudspeaker, subwoofer
Finally down to the short list for speakers? Before you pull the trigger, Artcoustic is hoping that you'll give its latest loudspeaker and subwoofer a glance. Up first is the two-way Spitfire Venue, which weighs in at just under 22-pounds, sports interchangeable screen options and should fit in just fine at a night club or guest room. You'll find a 10-inch woofer and a one-inch compression horn, which -- when paired up -- are capable of hitting notes anywhere between 40Hz and 18kHz. Taking care of the low-lows is the Spitfire Subwoofer (pictured), which actually relies on four 10-inch drivers and comes bundled with an 1,800-watt Artcoustic PA-1800 amplifier. Sadly, we've yet to be clued in on the price of the Venue, but considering the £1,485 ($2,922) sticker attached to the subbie, we'd surmise that these are most suited for the high-end sect, anyway.
