Would be fun to demo. I wonder how it would sound with mono recordings on LP?

    11,000 dollars per speaker...and they're made by Sony? Wow...

    Interesting concept...but I think I'm gonna have to pass one these ones.

    The aesthetics don't do it for me personally, too modern looking.

    Out of curiosity, I'd give it a listen.

    I'd give it a listen as well, but I've never been a huge fan of 360 degree speakers in the past since they aren't designed for stereo listening. I wonder how two in a stereo configuration would sound?
