I appreciate the humor guys but none of the ones listed are even
close. I don't believe these were totally omnidirectional. The
dispersal cone only covered about 180 degrees. Like I said the unit
consisted of a cube about 8 inches square with a hard grill that was
part of the case out the front then a cone that extended about 4-5
inches above the cube but was close on the back side. These did sound
very good with a solo performer and were very ****table. If I remember
right I think you could even by the cases from parts dealers to put in
your own drivers if you wanted.

I believe what you refer to was made by
KUSTOM and called the DAWN system
it was two small 180 degree satitlite speakers and a bass module

probably fine for the banjo player at the elks club picnic but not
something 
that was every used as pro sound gear
its so long discontinued even finding a picture of it on-line is a chore
music123.com has a small blurry one though
