B&W Nautilus Price: $35,000 As unique-looking as it is distinctive-sounding, B&W's cochlea-shaped Nautilus set the speaker world on its, well, ear when it was first introduced back in the mid-1990s. Somehow the speaker's disparate elements—graceful tapered-tube curves, H.R. Giger-like rear-pointed spikes—manage to work together harmoniously. And thanks to its snail-shell design, it's nearly devoid of parallel flat sides, minimizing the issue of standing waves.
