Aside from the usual "Alien Intruder" like comments about the large Wilson speakers, what others have you seen that exhude that otherworldly presence?

Nowhere near as weird as stuff posted here, but they were the oddest thing offered by Tech Hifi.  The Ohm "i."  They were so bad, we call them the "Oh, my!"

Sorry, the second oddest thing.  There was also the Ohm "F" as in "Fail."

And let's not forget our buddy Scott, who's here locally in Queens, NY.  His creations may not all be "TMTYL" designs, but some really creative stuff nonetheless!

Thanks SN for posting Scott's creations. He has made some funky looking speakers. I remember one time when I visited and saw some plain speakers and thought WTF. He told me he was experimenting with a HT type speakers.

Here is another guy's take on the Ohm Walsh F's.



If allenzachary made the Ohm Walsh F proclamation on any other forum I bet he'd be hunted and burned at the stake. Good thing he is here. The Ohm Walsh F's have a dedicated following and they seem to be the most sought after.

Also another set of alien looking speakers from Proclaim Audio.

The DMT-100

Aside from the usual "Alien Intruder" like comments about the large Wilson speakers, what others have you seen that exhude that otherworldly presence?

Like these from Davone of Denmark ...

I say let those who seek F's find them and enjoy them. They are not my cup of tea....

Although for a few moments I did own their younger, smaller cousins, the Walsh 2, which weren't terrible for $700 retail.  I also had a pair of Ohm L's which were a midsize bookshelf with a phenolic ring tweeter that could remove paint.

Thought these sounded awful.  They looked nice in person though.
