Wine Glass Speakers With a Wine Barrel Amp Are For Listening, Not Drinking
Posted by Sean Fallon at 8:30 AM on August 27, 2008
Leave it to the Japanese to come up with the crazy Mini Clear Sound System DT-SA101. It has a rated output of 4W (x2), but the only thing that really matters here is the design. In addition to looking like a couple of wine glasses and a barrel, the DT-SA101 also features LEDs in the glass that apparently give the wine/champagne a carbonated look. At any rate, even if you were willing to waste US$240 on this unit, you probably won't get a chance to since it is a Japan only release. [Product Page and Fareastgizmos]

Also, while the frequency range used to go down to 18 Hz, apparently, these things will now only play music 21 Hz and up.

Just another thing someone would try to eat or drink when drunk at my house.

Don't ask about port-ability.
Word is they don't travel well.

No, no, just a sec there, strider_mt2k, clarification is in order, they travel just fine. You see, the speakers come packaged in an elegant cardboard carrying case. To press the point, here's proof, a guy with a nose for vintage music enjoying his tunes "on-the-go":

Managers at WineStyles all across the area are going nuts just about now.
