Phonofonics II amplifies audio from earbuds by 55db, no external power

by DJ Neawedde | 10th July 2007

Very cool. The Phonofonics II dock takes sound from your earbuds, and blows it up to 55db through the ceramic horn, without the need for external power. “Upon connecting active earphones to the Phonofone their trebly buzzing is instantly and profoundly transformed into a warm, rich and resonant sound,” says the company, and the volume is “roughly the maximum volume of laptop speakers.” This will run you $875 for one of the 200-unit limited edition product made by Science & Sons. I don’t think as as much about the actual sound volume and quality as the coolness factor of having it.

Then you sold that on ebay and used the money to buy an even “better” iPod that was the size of your thumb, and then of course there’s the iPhone that you waited in line for. For three days.

Not only will you actually be able to hear your music better than before, but it will look amazing in your living room! Read [Ministry of Tech], Science & Sons Filed under Tech Leave a Comment […]
