What do you find, if anything, wrong with this picture?

Yeah and I am attracted to those speakers. I know the amps are a great match as I have the smaller brother. I was impressed they brought wooden diffusers to treat the room. I suppose with a system that large to ship, the effort to include room treatments was minimal.
The speakers are on castors, and the carpet should be where the hardwood is, and vise versa. Meaning I would rather have carpet in the middle of the room, to fight floor bounce, and the hardwood under the speakers.
It's in a hotel room. Noticed a picture of it on the Positive Feedback Facebook page. Must have taken a long time to setup the room. Not sure why they would want to bring a wood floor? Maybe it keeps the ceiling from coming down?

Perhaps it's me but the right speaker looks tilted to the right rather than standing straight up
Maybe its weight caused the foot to punch a hole in the floor! No, really, if you look at the window frame, it is tilted in the same direction. I think it is a parallax error. The photo appears to have been made from a low angle with a fairly wide lens. Also, the farther you go to the right in the photo, the more tilted everything is. He should have used an 8 x 10 Sinar with lens swing, tilt and shift to correct it instead of this newfangled digital photo crap.
Aren't the six woofers on the rear facing side of those speakers? The foot print of those speakers is a trapezoid.
A question before an answer...what am I looking at here? The white discs -- midrange drivers? Mid bass? Woofers? Passive radiators? Can anyone tell me the range of those drive units?

From their website:
Speaker (front):
• One 20mm diamond tweeter
• One 51mm lower treble diamond tweeter
• One 5” ceramic mid range unit
• One 8" aluminium laminated sandwich mid-bass driver
• Six 8" aluminium laminated sandwich low-bass drivers
Speaker (back):
• Six 11” sandwich passive radiators with the bass’ lowest below 40Htz
The recently posted photo was taken closer to eye level, shot almost parallel to the floor (and ceiling) midway in height between the floor and ceiling. Verticals are vertical and lines which we know are architecturally parallel are shown as such, except for the extreme foreground.

Good news. I'll assume, then, that the drivers at the extremes are low bass, which is not very directional, and we don't have sources of critical midrange audio pointed at the listener's feet and a few feet over his head. That would be very wrong, though not at all unheard of in large speakers. I hate it when the singer is simultaneously 7 feet and 5 inches tall, though some find that sort of thing impressive.

No Chairs or at least one in the sweet spot? Did you listen standing?
Rob
No, you just need to squat a bit and levitate in that position until you get your sound fix. I bet the chairs are behind or the photog is sitting in a front row DFC chair.
If that's from the chairs why so far back?? Does it take that much distance to integrate the drivers properly?? It looks like they are about 10-15 feet back is that correct?? That tweeter looks high off the ground you could end up sitting under it depending on the chair and how close you are.
