Korean audio manufacturer FILS makes thin speakers. Really thin. The faces of the speakers are made of a film called poly vinylidene fluoride (PVDF), "plezo film" for short. Plezo film is lightweight and can be bent into various shapes--like, say, the sails of a miniature yacht.

The FILS representative that I spoke with, Yun Gun-Young, told me that the simply-named Yacht Type Film Speaker is a big hit among executives in Europe and Central Asia, who apparently like to show off their income via novelty audio equipment.

The film doesn't do so well with lows, though, so the woofer is built into the base of the boat.

The company makes speakers in a slew of other styles too, but none quite so exciting as the sailboat. No word on availability in the U.S., but if you really want to live like a Central Asian executive, price should be no concern.
