These strange ducks are the FJ Oms from Germany. Standing only 28" tall, the tweeter fires right at you while the 6.75" driver shoots upward, sending sound everywhere like a water fountain. What's the point?

"...That is, if the speaker is properly designed and doesn't give itself away as the sound source. In that regard, the Oms are even better than the Thiels were as they produce a soundstage that is huge - recording permitting, of course. It goes wide, it goes tall and it goes deep."

That's what quasi-omni speakers are all about. Funny, the Mirage Omnisat V2 does the omni game exactly the opposite -- omni tweeter with direct firing woofers. Go figure. Price is $4000 for 50Hz to 20kHz +/- 2dB. These guys also make traditional speakers for those with neighbors upstairs.
