Personally I don't like the looks of too much tilted loudspeakers, maybe they remind me of accelerating cartoons?
I find them very unsettling. I want them to just get on with it already and tip over.Personally I don't like the looks of too much tilted loudspeakers, maybe they remind me of accelerating cartoons?

I find them very unsettling. I want them to just get on with it already and tip over.
If it is just slightly tilted I like them, although the ones you show here would be already too much for me.What about just a sloped front baffle?
These are one of my favourite speaker designs:

Not for me, Italian design knows often how to not exaggerate and even do optical tricks like having horizontal lines to make it look even more elegant:Tidal makes probably the most beautiful tilted speakers
Looking at all those massive architectural objects, with only a few tiny speakers emitting sound from them, one might wonder why all that mass is needed. Is it just to impress the buyer and justify a higher price? Or are these manufacturers trying to convey that the "back wave" is more important, and that they need to curb and redirect it to some orifice in that box? The few speakers at the front or on the side don't require much material to support them, while a significant amount is necessary to manage that back wave.Tidal makes probably the most beautiful tilted speakers

No.Is it just to impress the buyer and justify a higher price?
Back wave is not more important - it is merely equally important.Or are these manufacturers trying to convey that the "back wave" is more important, and that they need to curb and redirect it to some orifice in that box?
Your cryptic writing style can not conceal your love for open baffle/panel loudspeakers and hate for loudspeaker boxes. OK, but bear in mind - open baffle/panel loudspeakers have some serous drawbacks also. You posted pictures of several small open baffle loudspeakers - all of them have no bass at all. Besides that, I find them ugly.The few speakers at the front or on the side don't require much material to support them, while a significant amount is necessary to manage that back wave.
Sorry, no fun from their ugly sound and ugly look - they cost too much for what they deliver.Cost a few $s, but what fun!
100¥ is = 0.66$they cost too much for what they deliver.
