These particular interactive audio devices elevate the experience of sound entertainment in a visually stimulating way. By incorporating lights and in some case other pieces of technology, they encourage people to focus on sound in a different way. While some people might consider the display theatrical and entertaining, others will find them soothing and restful. The interactive audio devices target different needs in interesting ways.
Most of the interactive audio devices focus on the party element of music. This is represented through the use of bright lights and even a disco ball in one case. Yet there are a couple that deviate from this theme. One design appeals to children in the form of a digital pet dog while another focuses on mood and emotion through specific colors linked to the speaker.
