I love these iconic speakers even though they are truly hideous to look at - and of course a pun in 3D form.
These headless dog speakers are from Buro Vormkrijgers and come in black and white. I have not been able to find out a price, but have been informed they are hideously expensive. I can't find any information on their sound quality either...
Implications - Electronics have recently seen a shift in being simply top-of-the-line, but unique in design. Products such as this sound woofer are unique and appealing as they are quality tech devices that incorporate a unique design element as well. Tech companies need to realize that consumers do not want a bland product but one that is aesthetically appeasing as well.
