Have you ever bought a speaker that was nothing like the size you pictured?

Hi all — I'm Agustín, and I'm launching TrueScale here on 10 November.

Short version of what it does: every speaker photo online is cropped and

scaled differently, so "bookshelf speaker" tells you nothing about

whether the thing fits on your shelf. TrueScale draws any two speakers at

their real physical size, side by side, and next to a person for

reference. 1,148 speakers from 107 brands, all measured from the

manufacturer's own spec sheets.

The numbers that started this: the tallest speaker in the catalog is a

Børresen M8 at 2,217 mm and 325 kg. The shortest is a Neat Acoustics Iota

at 130 mm. Seventeen times the height, same word on the box.

While I finish getting ready, two things I'd genuinely like to hear:

**Have you ever bought a speaker that turned out to be a completely

different size than you pictured?** I want to know whether this is a

widespread annoyance or just mine. Specific stories welcome — the model,

and what you expected versus what showed up.

Happy to answer anything about how the rendering works — getting a

cabinet to draw at true scale from a product photo is fiddlier than it

sounds, and I'll gladly go into it.
