The legendary brand for prestige audio products, McIntosh Laboratories, presents a new floor standing loudspeaker system the XRT2.1K.
Characterized by unique design and impressive dimensions the XRT2.1K is definitely a high demanding subject.
When I gained the opportunity to shoot such a high-end product, I was really dazzled by the idea of standing with my camera in front of this titan. Polished black finishing, smooth and curvy surfaces, insanely high detail quality are only a few of the many features requiring really accurate lighting and photography awareness.
Editorial needs have led to a complete shooting list with different camera angles on a seamless white background which I did aiming to shoot the neatest image possible right in camera while limiting the post and edit processing to basic retouch and image cleaning.
Finally, I allowed myself to shoot a cover image on a black background that I particularly enjoyed working on as it better fits my personal style and taste.
