Designed by UK speaker research center KEF Audio and Ross Lovegrove, a champion of organic, 21st Century design and one of the most respected designers on the planet, the key to the design is super-formed aluminum. The process does for metal something like what vacuum forming does for plastic: you heat sheets of aluminum so they can be molded into unique forms. The speakers themselves are formed out of single, 6-foot pieces of metal, into an acoustically-conceived, flowing form. I haven’t heard them, but we’ve already discussed (at a radically lower price point) why speakers really don’t have to be — or even shouldn’t be — rectangular.

I agree that wire can be negligible, especially over shorter runs. That doesn't mean it doesn't warrant some consideration, though as Anthony says, I've never heard anyone agree about it.

Micro speakers (5″ each), yes, but in a slender but tall enclosure.
