I love these iconic speakers even though they are truly hideous to look at - and of course a pun in 3D form.

These headless dog speakers are from Buro Vormkrijgers and come in black and white. I have not been able to find out a price, but have been informed they are hideously expensive. I can't find any information on their sound quality either...
