    Is that a screen or a window?

    A window. A screen rolls out from the ceiling, though.

    Digging on the side diffusors but I very much hope the ceiling above the beams is pure absorption.

    That looks SICK! Couldn't find their sensitivity, but probably well above 100dB?

    Dope looking new speaker from OMA. Dual 15" woofers with a coaxial mid+tweeter horn.

    Hard to get an idea of scale. The picture looks so imposing, I'd expect humans to be ant-like around the base! :D

    I'm guessing at least $30k. At least.

    I think the site said 50” tall, but not sure if that includes the stand/feet.

    That seems optimistic from a company that makes a $360,000 turntable...

    Wonder if that "grille" is purely decorative or if it functions as some kind of waveguide?

    Probably optimistic, yeah. Jonathan's DeVille bookshelf is like $12k.

    When I visited OMA last summer, which was fun, he said he was working on another floor stander. Don't know if this was it. I seem to recall him mentioning a price around $30-40k, but fuzzy memory on exact details, and, again, I don't know if this was it. Very cool looking speaker though.

    These are the people in Fleetwood, PA using Amish and Mennonite wood workers?
    That's not far from here and I was curious if they allowed visitors...?

    Fleetwood Sound is their other brand so likely the same people. They have a showroom in Brooklyn that you can visit, but not sure about their PA facility.

    Yep, Fleetwood Sound is a more wallet-friendly branch of OMA, or at least that's how it looks like.

    I've always found this speaker very aesthetically pleasing and intriguing. The spruce wood looks gorgeous.
