I have just see the below posted across social media and thought it would be of interest as a placeholder for discussion as more information emerges on this very interesting looking product.

We're thrilled to unveil ASCENDO's THE HALO 10 PRO ACTIVE EXT CARDIOID—a groundbreaking three-way active speaker that redefines precision, power, and elegance in high-performance audio.
Named for its mesmerizing circular form and its ability to dissolve into the listening experience, THE HALO 10 PRO is a feat of acoustic engineering. Unlike conventional speakers that radiate sound omnidirectionally—often causing unwanted reflections and bass buildup—THE HALO 10 leverages cardioid bass technology, directing low-frequency energy forward while minimizing rear-wall interactions. This results in tighter, more controlled bass, reduced room resonance, and a cleaner, more precise soundstage—perfect for critical listening environments where every detail matters.
10” coaxial midrange driver (operating from 200Hz up) paired with a 3” compression driver for seamless highs.
Six 8” woofers in a cardioid array, delivering deep, articulate bass down to 55Hz with minimal rear energy.
136+ dB SPL at 1m with staggering dynamic range and headroom.
Ultra-compact depth (just 10”), making it ideal for spaces where traditional high-performance speakers won’t fit.
THE HALO 10 PRO will make its world premiere in our booth (4312) at CEDIA Expo, as well as the $1M home theater in Sound Room 7, where it will serve as the LCR speakers behind the Seymour-Screen Excellence acoustically transparent screen. In a breathtaking reveal, the screen will rise to expose THE HALO speakers in all their glory.
