What is the technical term for this style of speaker?

In my experience they are typically 3-5 feet tall, and 12 to 24 inches wide. Usually has 1 woofer, 1 midrange, and 1 tweeter.

    well floor standing speakers it is... in Speaker world we talk more about inches, tweeters, 2-3 way , passive/active, rather than the actual speaker. I mean dimensions are kind of "less important" . other than that if the speaker is standing on the ground it's a floor standing speaker.

  • Well, when I google 'floor standing speaker' I get these tall thin ones with no low end.

The common names for such kind of models are 3-Way Classic, 3W Classic or simply "3-Ways".

Troels Gravesen, a danish DIY speaker pioneer, has a page all dedicated to that design: http://www.troelsgravesen.dk/3WClassic.htm.

On his website you can find other variants of the design (and other interesting designs): http://www.troelsgravesen.dk/Diy_Loudspeaker_Projects.htm
