A few years ago, Winslow Burhoe was selling a wall positioned speaker under Direct Acoustics Silent Speaker. Although the website is still active I think he stopped selling them in part because production of the tweeter he was using was phased out. Most recently I htink he's been designing for Zvox.

JM Reynaud sells a speaker designed to be positioned against the wall.

And lastly Amphion's Krypton2 uses a cardioid pattern which supposedly allows the speakers to be put against the wall. Soundstage did an interview with the proprietor of Amphion where he explains this but I can't find it at the moment.

If you want to put them in the corner then I believe you are looking for a pair of Klipschorns.
