Thanks guys! This keeps the forum nice and neat.
well, since woofers have to be large..... I would say the tweeter is behind her....

Atsali, yes, I can see that. Not sure about Nadette, though. She's bear-folk, and I don't believe bears actually woof. They growl, they snarl, they pop their jaws as a threat, and they occasionally heyboo, but I don't think they woof.
problem is, *hollywood* is to blame for the *wrong* bear sounds... the actual sound is different for each type, but the written word for it varies across the world... in France it is ioau ...
If Nadette can create her eyes on the surface tht means she can create her mouth as well. After all it takes an open volume for her sound box to resonate in to create speech properly. It will also require a tongue and teeth. Since Nadette is muffled when Sali crosses her arms we know where the vocal arrangements are. Sali is lucky she is not ticklish or she would be rolling on the ground laughing, or possibly from excitement.
The placement also is typical for seers/oracles. Voices from the dark in a cave, or deep valley.
Ambush questions are fun. Watching the mental impact of them as they distort, or crumble, opinions based on faulty logic.

With the occasional "heyboo", are Rangers and pic-a-nic baskets involved?

Quite correct! Thanks... I wasn't at all sure that anybody would get the reference.
It is, of course, only the most of enlightened of bears who can do that.

Actually, "bear" is correct for both the animal and for presnting/holding/carrying. "Bare" means something/someone is uncovered.
I know that... I was joking. Maybe I should have dropped a Thesaurus in the pun jar for good measure...
Or a copy of the DVD of Naked Gun 3.14159: The Right to Bare Arms. A great performance by Leslie Nielsen, although the movie got a real drebin from the critics.

Don't know about "woof" but bears have been known to "wuff".

Nadaette is motorboating. . . .Yeah, yeah, that's the ticket. She went for 3 hour cruise cruise on a motorboat; nothing to see here, move along.
(drops a box set of Gilligan's island DVD's into the pun vault--seriously, there is way too much stuff in there for it to be called a jar)
Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?

you seem to have forgotten... a 'flat panel' speaker does not need teeth and a tongue... and it can produce much more varied sound... :/

There is nowhere for a flat panel speaker to fit now is there? So while those would work there is no place to put one against all those curves without it standing out.

As Clarke said, any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. Conversely to me this would also mean any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology. These folks in the waspiverse have had a loonngg time to get magic right. So the voice is magic powered no need for a speaker at all.

and if I'm remembering the quote correctly... Florence Ambrose said: “Any technology, no matter how simple, is magic to those who don’t understand it”
In Flint's 1632, one of the pieces of early-21st-century technology that most impresses the first minor official from 1631 to encounter that technology is a little device known as a come-along. One reason it's so impressive to him is that, upon studying it in operation, he can easily understand it - but he can also see how far beyond the manufacturing and metallurgy of his time the device is. And this work crew he's come across has several of them, all extremely similar.
They also have several chainsaws, but the official is less than 100% certain there aren't demons involved in those things. (I've heard that opinion of chainsaws from people who use the things.) And he definitely doesn't understand them.

Yep, and that self-same official was very saddened to see that we have also excelled in ANOTHER piece of "technology"... the BODY-BAG... awesome series by the way, can't wait for the next one...
