Why speakers are called what they are.

Speak-er is a playful speaker design by Sherwood Forlee that puts the SPEAK back into Speakers. A speaker is a device that converts electrical energy into sound waves. It’s also someone who expresses in language.

Give your speakers some extra personality by making them out of a vinyl doll. The combined need for some new speakers created a happy union of doll and speaker.

Designer Ed Lewis took the hip, urban chic of vinyl toys and gave them the gift of music by fusing speakers into the faces of these “Munnny” vinyl toys from Kid Robot.

the three-way ZQ31D loudspeaker touts an architecture that responds to the acoustic demands. It entails merging of midrange/treble column with the subwoofer box. It features a 10mm twin-magnet Kevlar tweeter; a 15-degree angled midrange waveguide loading a 38mm Kevlar driver; and a 31cm woofer.

War tech phones? No, it’s just the new Sony Personal Field Speakers. Sound loud and around! You can even feel the bass in your brains!

Features

Sony redefines the world of sound with its new 2007 PFR-V1 Personal Field Speaker that mimics audiophile grade front-facing speakers. First in the industry (and the world) to separate bass from mid and treble frequencies so that users can hear even better sound. Bass sounds are reproduced through a new “extended bass reflex duct” which extends directly into the ear canals.

Wine Company Carlo Rossi has some spectacular pieces of furniture that would add zing to the décor of any place inside your home. We have earlier seen their inviting Cabernet Couch and now, we have the Sangria Surround Sound System, which is made of 4-5 litre Rossi jugs with various sized holes.

Every object and surface in our environment has a whisper; subtle tremors and vibrations that are usually undetectable to the human ear, produced by the activity and movement of daily life.

What if these sounds were audible? How would that change our aural awareness, perception of space and attitude towards objects? Would it be possible to ‘compose’ our own soundtrack using our walls and objects as a new form of instruments? Madsounds is a proposal for a different appreciation of our environment, space and objects by making it possible to identify, combine and manipulate these sounds.

The Otto may look like one of those suction cup gadgets that turns any surface into a sound generating speaker, but it’s actually more like a stethoscope than a speaker. If you latch it onto a window, a wall or a glass of ice water, you can hear “subtle tremors and vibrations.

What has not been done by using rapid prototyping technique? My answer is making sounds. It must be difficult to make music but it could be possible to make noise.
