They look like they were left out in the sun and melted a bit.

impressive, what are they? Look a bit like a Perlisten Concept or Prototype, or at least it shares their drivers?
I like slender looking simple tower speakers, simple straightforward box shape.
I agree with the guy who posted his KEFs. I like a simple clean looking speaker. The KEF R11 looks beautiful and better than most of the high end boutique speakers in this thread. Looks great with grills on or off. Drivers look unique, beautifully integrated bezels, and color matched drivers. Another example of the simple design I like is the Arendal 1961.....also a clean modern profile.

Thank you. I designed the speakers. The drivers are Satori TX 5" in 3 cardiode sections (frequency tapered). Tweeter is Satori Be in WG. Subs are Wavecor in closed cab. and eq. The loudspeakers are built by an audiophile cabinet maker. You might find the build thread if you google for "moelva satori".

Those vents on the front remind me of the vents for the plasma tweeters on the Lansche (although the position is wrong), or maybe I saw similar vents on another well known speaker?
So how did the Satori Be tweeter do? Was recently looking at the Helios speaker kit on Meniscus that uses them, and several speaker companies have been playing with both the Satori and the Scanspeak versions in models I've heard recently. Seemed very detailed and airy to me but I also got some sense that people felt their directivity was too narrow even with the diffuser.
As far as how that midrange array sounds and images I'm completely at a loss to guess and will have to find the thread on them.
According to Darwin we all are. Opinions vary on that, but it wasn't a dig at you.
FWIW I quite like the KEFs too, but they do have a slightly, uh...imposing look to the them, wouldn't you agree?

Nope. Common ancestor. Not the same thing, and not an opinion.

Still hard to beat Tidal for contemporary design and level of finish:
When I sold TVs in the early to mid 80's I sold a heap of cathedral looking big wood 26" console TVs to the Italians in my neighborhood. These speakers look cathedral'shy. Very nice but not for all decor.

I'm getting those Hercule Poirot vibes again 
I must agree on this... The stand mounted versions are kinda ugly.

Disagree. 1 over 3 any day.
I get that #3 has some continuity in materials, but the execution feels a bit cottage-quality or made-in-the-garage.
