Looks like something off a big Chevy.

Its gets my vote for the ugliest speaker known to man anyway. Who'd clone this? The blind or Jean Paul Gaultier would be my first guess.

Looks like -

A) A UFO.

B) A chicken (ready for the oven)

C) E.T. after a makeover

I see no revolutionary thinking here - yes an interesting way to enhance bass, but that's about it - I'd be more interested in seeing the crossover design.

I'm thinking a couple of spark plugs in the tailpipes with small injectors shooting outward and things would start to get pretty interesting.

Am envisioning listening to Telarc 1812 and when the cannon fires the plugs and flames trigger at the same time...

Talk about interactive!!!

LOL!

I have an admission to declare.

I once thought of cutting 2 discs at 15" dia, and pulling them into a 15x10" tyre for a petrol head friend of mine. One disc would be the baffle for a sub with 2 satellites poking up as ears.

I am glad I gave her a pot-plant for X-mas, she may have had me taken away by men in white jackets, for my own safety.

Names with-held to protect the innocent.

Just saw these on Craigslist and thought they also fit this thread...

Now those are some spikes!!!

From the ad (no they're not mine and I have no affiliation)
