Is there much interests in Omni-Directional loudspeakers out there?

Please post.

I'll start with One of the well-known DIY designs

PLUTO-2.1 omni-directional loudspeaker

Not DIY but looks amazing nonetheless

Model Q-15 Loudspeakers
High power, high fidelity foreground music with enhanced low frequency response and high SPL capability in single or multiple speaker systems. Ideal for gymnasiums, ice rinks, churches, swim centers, open public areas, bars and nightclubs.

I think omni speakers are a good idea, if you have the space to make them work. I'm a teenager in a bedroom, so there's no space to try them...

Cool eyecandy though.

And don't forget to look for the Fontanella Sats too.

Thanks for the reference -- those were mine. I wanted to point out that the graph is of the vertical response variations. Horizontally there is virtually no response variation due to geometry.

Also, shouldn't leave out the most famous of the omnis:

Omnis can sound very good, but there is a problem if you want a wide sweet spot -- you can't toe them in! So, for front channels, at least, I've moved to Controlled Directivity designs.
