    I realize that de gustibus non est disputandum, but I'm just not a big fan of mean looking loudspeakers.

    Me either. Although I know the Wilson line of speakers sound amazing, they have to be some of the ugliest ever made. And I’m sorry when we’re putting speakers in the homes, they need to look like nice pieces of furniture IMO

    I'm not too crazy about the way they sound, either (and FWIW).

    Notice in that picture the woman has passed the speakers by and the man just had to stop and play with the knobs. I'm sure she's giving him "the look".

    Reminds me of my wife and I after entering Sam's club a few times.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    In the 1970s, it was different.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I could see them as the younger couple or friends together then. ;)

    And I can picture the older woman saying, you have too many speakers now, come on, let's go.

    That, my friend, is a fully operational battle tweeter, umm, I mean -- super tweeter.
    Or as they call it, a "high frequency tweeter". Beats them low frequency tweeters all to heck, I can tell you that. :#

    Made by Pioneer and sold by Lafayette Radio Electronics (LRE) in the early 1960s.
    With acoustic diffuser. B)
