Pronounced "Oag (as in oatmeal) ta LA ray."
Which apparently is how you say "Loudspeaker," if you work in IKEA's headquarters.
It's a co-developed product, designed to fit into IKEA shelving-unit cubbies.
Mine is in fact in the kitchen. The big woofer and the overported enclosure mean that I don't miss a subwoofer. In fact, I "Pro-Ac'ed" the port with cocktail-stirrer sipping straws, to tame the bass.
One great feature is that you can buy two units, and pair them for stereo--again, with two woofers that large, I don't think you need a SW for casual listening.
The link is to Amazon, with Morel USA as the seller. Perhaps you can find a lower price.
Such as: A "New/Open Box" one on eBay.
