Podium 1 Speakers

Move out of the way ginormous flat screen TVs and make room for this pair of enormously flat pair of speakers. Big enough to be mistaken for room dividers but measuring only 1" thick (noisiest room dividers ever) these Podium 1 speakers are intended to appeal to people who want awesome big sound in a reasonably portable package. Sound emits from both the front and back and is said to sound much more like live music than other systems.
They're big and they're flat, but I think they're also really boring and ugly to look at. For $8,000 a pair shouldn't they be shiny or something?
