Culture & Celebrity (audio video)

The latest PC from Alienware? No, these innovative speakers from Escalante show that speaker design can be eco-effective too. These speaker don't introduce unwanted chemicals into your listening environment. The speaker cabinets are made of 100% recycled wood board with a low-VOC glue, no formaldehyde and AFM Safecoat finish (that non-toxic paint). The speaker grills are made with recycled paper and covered with organic cotton and recycled polyester fabrics from Patagonia. These are only for audiophiles at $3500-$6500. They received some good reviews though. Escalante Design via Natural Home & Garden

Justin-
We, at Escalante Design, appreciate your mentioning our products on your site. Just for the record, our grills are made from 100% recycled plastic (regrind) material, not paper. Warm Regards, Matthew
