The Fern & Roby Cube Speakers do an aesthetically pleasing job of re-purposing vintage materials. The neutral-hued devices are made of pine from the late 19th century, adding a historic appeal to the musical design concept.
Paired with the wood is recycled aluminum and used metal from the Fern & Roby team. These materials encase an Alpair 7 Gold Driver speaker set by MarkAudio, often a go-to for manufacturers looking to customize layouts.
Aside from the Alpair items, the Cube Speakers are independently crafted. This sustainable in-house concept is of mass appeal for consumers seeking authenticity through technology. While it is difficult to produce items merging these two categories, Fern & Roby has done so with evident expertise.
