As @whatu1tme2b says, I’m pretty certain they are Tannoy’s. Canterburys perhaps? Google image search is pretty effective these days, I used that on your photo and Tannoy Canterburys were the most frequent hit. Lovely speakers, even if they’re not to my aesthetic tastes you can’t knock the work that must go into them!

Indeed @gthack, the speakers are Tannoy Canterbury 15HE. Thank you for suggesting Google image search - it led me to a post from a Japanese audiophile who had made similar observations at the same hotel!

Given the nature of electromechanical transducers, don’t we always listen to air?

It’s the Nat Steele Quartet with Scott Hamilton, on the second date of their tour to promote Nat’s new album. On piano is Matyas Gayer, it’s the second time I’ve seen him play and I think he’s brilliant, one of the best jazz pianists I’ve ever heard. The rhythm section is Dave Green and Steve Brown, stalwarts of the British jazz scene and lovely people.
It’s at the Concorde Club in Eastleigh.

Well when I spent my time at the Beeb in the late 80s with studio engineering the perceived wisdom was the centre of the screen should horizontally be in front of your eyes.. so if viewing when seated set TV height accordingly … and with standard definition the correct viewing distance was when your outstretched clenched fist covered the screen…
Obviously HD and UHD has rendered the fist rule obsolete, but the viewing height we have always maintained… looking up or down to a screen was /is generally seen as providing a poor or sub optimal viewing experience… and I totally agree.
