en&is MegaPhone Projects Audio in a Free-Flowing Manner
Matt Ho — November 10, 2011 — Art & Design
While the hi-tech Bluetooth MP3 docks are nice and dandy, it doesn't hurt to enjoy fine craftsmanship and simple acoustics of the en&is MegaPhone.
Instead of wires and speakers, the en&is MegaPhone is a simple amplifier that takes music listeners back to the basics. The horned MP3 dock relies on the science of sound wave reverberation, which means no electricity is involved. The MegaPhone is made entirely from ceramic and is shaped in a free-flowing form that allows the best amplification. The wooden frame was designed to position it in a way to increase the vibration of the object and to optimize the emission of sound.
The en&is MegaPhone is compatible with most iPhone/iPod models and is available in three colors.
