Round Sound

This giant speaker, dubbed “The Eyeball,” by those who fear it, is actually a large four-way coaxial speaker. It is designed for movie theaters and offers dynamic range and loudness for orchestral music and film soundtracks, according to Stereophile.

Meanwhile, the “spherical enclosure is designed to help eliminates standing waves and create a more rounded sound,” according to Luxist. Whatever that means.

Not sure how the speaker itself can help reduce standing waves - I think that’s more a room characteristic than a speaker one.
