The nostalgia surrounding retro, music-listening devices is often trumped by smart technology's cutting edge sound and seamlessly integrated designs, prompting 'Lofree' to create the Poison Speaker' -- a sound system that combines vintage aesthetic with modern sound technology.
Poison features a compact speaker system that's as adorable as it is technologically-infused. Available in a variety of pastel colors, this speaker is reminiscent of old-school, 1950s-era radios. The device uses an "acoustic bass enhancement" which "an ultra large diaphragm in the back to pump out powerful and deep bass while producing clear mids and trebles from the front."
Offering tiny size with a big sound, this device provides its users with a best of both worlds scenario, as it allows users reminisce in the memories of radio channel surfing, while enjoying the advancements that modern sound innovation has to offer.
