A hi-fidelity home listening speaker.

Each speaker is designed, crafted, and machined by hand in Brooklyn, NY and requires 4 to 6 weeks for production.

This speaker was inspired by a technological coincidence bridging hundreds of years of history: the form of a Morningstar (a medieval spiked mace weapon) is an acoustically optimal design for a speaker.

Sound expands spherically, and spherical speaker enclosures are renowned by audiophiles for their even frequency response. Within the enclosure, the spherical walls create a maximally complex path of reflection for sound waves, allowing the speaker to harness the acoustical amplification provided by a hollow cavity while maintaining an even frequency response. Outside the enclosure, the curved wall prevents early reflections off of the surface of the speaker, creating a more direct experience of the sound.

The spikes of the Morningstar are function as loudspeaker spike components, hardware specifically designed to isolate vibration from the surface the speaker rests upon. The speaker can stand on any combination of 3 spikes, allowing for flexible directional positioning. Any of the spikes can spikes can also be replaced with an eye bolt, allowing for use as a hanging pendant speaker with flexible directionality.

The spike in the speaker's center functions as a phase plug, reflecting and dispersing high frequencies to create a more spatially even frequency response ideal for home listening environments.
