It's renowned for it's 'liquidity'.

Mobius MKII Reference Loudspeaker System

"...the Mobius MKII stands approximately 38" tall. The loudspeaker uses four drivers in its 8" bipolar array that sits atop the speaker to produce 360 degrees of sound. The orb houses two 1" silk dome tweeters and a pair of 6" midbass drivers with neodymium motors mounted back to back...."

I found this thread a couple days ago when I was having my coffee and thought to myself; Self, I can do better than that. These are the best sounding RS 1354 yourv'e ever heard.

Hmmm, a little wider version and it could be called the Hershey's Kiss Special Edition It is certainly unique and distinctive, and I am sure some out there will really like the, shall we say "organic" shape. I never heard of Vivid, so I visited their website...very interesting, especially their more simple but still distinctive K1 mains and C125 mid-woofer (links below)...

K1 Fullrange loudspeaker:

C125 Low Mid Driver:

Did that speaker dust cap "spark" the idea for your design?

That cap looks like quite a sturdy "plug" if you ask me.

Were you "shocked" by the sound quality?

Didn't see these mentioned yet;

ME Geithain
RL901K (cardioid bass)

Void Acoustics
Air motion series (seen these multiple times as dj monitors at big dance events)

Static series (pretty regular PA design, nice jacket)

Funktion One
Resolution 5 (I believe. F-one makes very good SQ PA stuff)

Tannoy
Westminster ('bespoke' cabinetry, heritage and SQ)

Danley
The matterhorn was already mentioned, but there's more;

Synergy Horns, SH 50;

Tapped Horns (both the front and back of the driver are in the horn path) TH221;

Yorkville
U15 (Using Danley's Synergy design);

Gedlee
Summa (foam plugged waveguide by Dr Geddes);

There's another comapany using his tech (which also has a couple of distinctive subs), can't remember the name at the moment.

Karlson Coupler
This design type wasn't mentioned yet, dunno what the best commercial example is/was;

Klipsch
I do think the La Scala is a unique product.

Didn't see these mentioned yet;

[Tapped Horns (both the front and back of the driver are in the horn path) TH221;

Voltcontrol:
Cool entries!!! That TH221 design looks VERY similar to a past model QSC speaker I posted in this thread...except with the drivers facing the opposite direction (I wonder which design works best)...
