Do you think it is possible to get some PVC drainpipe material of different widths and attach them to a vent in a normal speaker in a telescopic transmission line kind of way, so that you could tune the length of the line until it is just right?
With decent proportions, it could look and sound quite good probably?
Any variations on the idea?

That's some nice work, i'd like to do the same thing with the drivers held in cement.
In my mind I was thinking of something that's a cross between a speaker and a Yankee freight truck with some vertical exhaust pipes. Perhaps even an oil refinery look.
I was thinking that the drainpipe tubes I have in the Garden have a drainpipe echo sounder at the moment, I think PVC tubes are probably best used extra rigid with very fixed ends for a truly dead weight.
Spirals sound interesting, although I'd be most interested in trying to mould a corkscrew like the bronze corkscrews used to irrigate the hanging elevated gardens of Babylon. The methods used for moulding are mysterious, although there are some theories about effective spiral creation methods.

You mean something like this?
IIRC, it's a Daline-type enclosure published in the dutch magazine Audio & Techniek. The Woofer connects to the inner tube which ends near the bottom of the outer tube. Exit points are the squares you see below the tweeter.
Audio & Techniek published several designs based on PVC tubes.
