Not my usual thing at all but I came across these in a Hi-Fi shop last week:
JBL K2 9500 (iirc) for the Japanese Hi-Fi market apparently. The industrial design is unusual, and I like that kind of retro much more than the contemporary squat JBLs with wood finish. The overall integration of the stacked shapes and curved grilles is wonderful. The aluminium-finished bi-radial horn is a beautifully harmonious form, and the solid copper connecting metalwork is a delightful detail.
