So, all I have to do, is to take the two Rosenthal tea (or rather sugar)-pots from my mum and put a (tiny) speaker in it ?
For some unknown reason... using Ceramic sounds like a good way to get a lot of resonance..

This speaker reminds me of the old Norh (? - they’re probably somewhere earlier in this thread) speakers, but with the driver on the “side” instead of the “bottom” of the vessel.

The room or the speaker?

It's a godawful space. Run a D9 dozer through that place and rebuild...

I have no problem with room design - i like industrial/minimalism.

That couch on the other hand... Ouch... I really can't imagine myself getting comfortable on it after hard working day.

EDIT: Oh yeah, the speaker looks shity to :)

The room obviously was not designed with acoustics in mind. Same for the speaker.

I can't see anything unusual here, but sound engineering practice - stepped baffle for the tweeter, slanted baffles for lower diffraction effects and angled lower woofer for aligning the same distance to the listener as the upper woofer. Yes, not very common, but not unusual at all.
Is this product from GURU loudspeakers designer (I forgot the name)?
