What are these Japanese sound shapers?

[Michaels HiFi]

Anyone know what these are and where to buy in the states?

Looks like they get places in front of the speakers on the floor as in this vid from a Japanese hifi show shows them places about 4 feet away from the speakers on the floor in several rooms:

Hmmm...looks like a sort of floor diffuser. Never seen anything like this.

Yeah - and I've tried searching and can't find anything.

Here is their vertical version. I think they are made from bamboo.

This popped up on a WBF thread not too long ago. Not available in US. One of the industry guys here looked into importing and apparently decided wasn't going to be worth it.

Alternative?
Amazon.com

Thanks.

I'm wondering if it is a mathematical design or just random? If just random one could simply cut up some wood poles from Home Depot and such.

Not inexpensive though.

Thank you! I've researched everywhere and it just doesn't seem possible to get them over here. Most people seem to say they are fantastic and point to MBL using them at the shows as well.

I think they are beautiful and I heard them in 2 different rooms in Munich 2019. One was with Vivid speakers...

They definitely work and I would love to have a room that uses them someday.
