Acapella.
Some real low-fi here
Sounding very good on some female vocal.
I used Shazam to discover Stardust by Margareta Bengtson. https://www.shazam.com/track/204952227/stardust
Oddly there's a cone driver behind each white horn. And it's firing directly into it with about half its surface area.
It does sound glorious on mid range focused material in here, though.
That said Nils Lofgren's Keith Don't Go and.my system at home has it beat. Again there's a slight softness going on here. The steel string doesn't sound that steely.
Still pretty nice, though. It has mine beat for scale no question.

Less convincing on Rodrigo Y Gabriela's Stairway but hey. Lacking bite and attack.
Good to 16Hz, made of a composite used in Formula 1.
Great scale. Very good on atmospheric stuff.
They just sound vast. Way bigger than the Acapellas did.
Must admit I am enjoying them. The top horn is throwing stuff everywhere LOL.
