For those who enjoy good music, but detest unsightly black boxes

Truly beautiful music playing from... seemingly nowhere. Here's what you need.

A home may look beautiful, but something is missing if it doesn’t sound beautiful as well.

Homeowners across Australia who commit to adding a quality audio system to their build or renovation always agree with that sentiment—once they’re enjoying that system in their day to day lives. 

An upbeat tune to set the mood while you prepare dinner? Blissful listening with your spouse over a bottle of fine red? Background music to gently enliven into your home? Musical perfection to excite party guests?

All wonderful experiences you can look forward to with a premium audio system...

...but there’s always been a catch: getting clear, emotion-rich sound in your home required unsightly black boxes. 

They're abrasive, with rough edges and colours that clash with everything in the room. Everything, that is, except the TV remote. (And the other boxes.)

Thankfully, artisanal audio makers around the world have been hard at work solving this problem. Though rare, it’s now possible to find modern speaker designs that both look great (meaning they blend in, with options to match any room aesthetic), and sound full and wonderful. 

Make no mistake—there are lots of aesthetic audio products out there. But a surprising lot of them make a paltry attempt to produce music. It’s a shame to invest resources into putting these mediocre solutions into a home design that was cared for in every other way. And the difference is obvious once you hear some of the truly high-quality possibilities.

At Audio Connection, we ruthlessly curate our catalogue to ensure we continue to supply Australia with the world’s best audio products—as we’ve done for more than 35 years. We don’t fill our shelves with boxes to give the perception of “choice.” Instead, we labor to find the best performing products and literally send back those that don’t make the cut, because our business model is to do the searching and screening for you.

Part of that search includes finding speakers that either look great in your home, or blend in seamlessly.

So on that note, if you’d like to include exceptional music listening experiences into your home that seem to “come out of nowhere,” then I strongly recommend considering the architectural speakers made by Gallo Acoustics.

They’ve created some subtle, good-looking compact speakers that can hang like teardrop lights, be mounted on walls or ceilings, or placed on shelves. Speakers that can easily be set up for wireless control and music streaming. And they come in a massive range of finishes to match the style of any room.

Best part is, the Gallo sound is unbelievably good, especially when you see the size and form of the speakers. You truly have to hear them to believe it. If you'd like to do that, the team and I would love to host for you in our showroom. We’re here in Leichhardt, Sydney, ready to give you a warm welcome and an unforgettable demo and consultation experience—no strings attached. 

Or if it’s more convenient, you can check out the some of the top Gallo products from our catalogue below, with many more listed on our website.
