Are there speakers with cloth/soft enclosures instead of wood?

What does a soft enclosure sound like?

There are a lot: Electrostatics, Maggies, Time Windows... yes they have wood frames, other wise they would droop and sag.

All you see is the top & bottom oak caps & that big black sock wrapping 95% of the speaker. I've seen pictures of the Vandy 4s sans sock. Very odd looking thing: a very strong central tower of various speaker enclosures (black MDF) attached at top & bottom.
