Sherack Nhar Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 http://www.teamxbox.com/news.php?id=3592 Basically, those speakers are the next best thing in portable speaker technology. When inflated the plastic skin is apparently a good resonance material, making the bass even better than most conventional portable speakers. ...I'd rather have headphones, thank you ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DashRendar Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 A balloon and some simple-most likely High Ohm-speaker components, for only $49.99, pfffft. I may not be able to make it, but I KNOW that many could, and for more like $10.10 (the 10 cents for the balloon ). If that succeeds they'll be making some good moolah off it.

Rogue Nine Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 I could make a highly inappropriate joke about inflatable things... Nifty. Now I just need a router that'll do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMadDoofer Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 I doubt they put out very good sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfmanNCSU Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 I still love the sound of wood speakers, but I would like to listen to them. I wonder what they would sound like, but I would expect not very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jatt13 Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 i'd be interested in hearing them, but i wouldn't pay 50 bucks for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherack Nhar Posted August 21, 2002 Author Share Posted August 21, 2002 Yeah... carrying around a laptop on a beach, how cool is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Rhett Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 It's cool until someone starts kicking around your speakers and then a game of Beach Ball is suggested and before ya know it, you're out a pair of 50 dollar speakers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surfnshannon Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 I have one word for you.... PIN!!! POP there goes your 50 dollar speakers. Dumb idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tie Guy Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Why do you really need portale speakers like that? I mean, most people don't want to carry their speakers with them everywhere, do they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherack Nhar Posted August 22, 2002 Author Share Posted August 22, 2002 Apparently so, as they are a craze in england, according to the article. I guess there's a market for everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teutonicknight Posted August 23, 2002 Share Posted August 23, 2002 I would not pay any thing for that. Why buy your own speakers? Make your own!!! Materials need: Old coffee can (metal) with out top Copper Wire Tape Magnet. 1. Wrap the wire around the magent. The more the better. 2. Wrap more wire. MORE I tell you!!!! Leave the ends exposed 3. Put the magnet creation on the outside of your can, on the bottom of the can 4. Tape the exposed wires to an connecter thing (the connector that plugs into the speaker slot) 5. Make sure that there is a full circuit. It works if you did it right. Its just science Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Homer Posted August 23, 2002 Share Posted August 23, 2002 What no one thought possible: Inflatable speakers! I dunno, it's probably more like What no one ever thought OF this'll probably fail faster than trying to sell death sticks to a jedi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
