Wear your speakers like a fashion accessory by wrapping the Quirky Helix around your jet-setting wrists.
The portable device uses Bluetooth technology to connect to your music player. The speaker uses a flexible core that is susceptible to being bent, twisted and turned without damaging the mechanics of the device. It is made out of rubber and coated with a waterproof textile, so if you'd like to bring it in the bathroom with you to rock out as you shower, then you may. Just make sure it does not get submerged in water.
The Quirky Helix uses aluminum to get the beats from your player to your ears. It is very lightweight and keeps its twisted formation until you unfold it yourself.
