You can hang them on the wall like framed pictures, suspend from the ceiling or set them standing on the floor (or 'leaning', as in photos). This set is completely functional. To the trained 'audiophile' ear, some music sounds better than other music on these, but this is just the type of speaker. Rampal's flute is out of this world on them, but your Iron Maiden might not come out so well! Solid wood frames with fabric fronts. Design is called 'Zebra' Made in Argentina.
