    Speakerless sound. Ha.

    Because I'm sure a taped and sealed 4x8 sheet of draywall makes a stunningly pistonic and uncolored speaker driver:

    SolidDrive creates audio technology that transforms surfaces into sound sources. SolidDrive's sound transducers produce quality sound at further distances.


    Something to upgrade to Bose from.

    Say whaaaaaaat? Yes, sound energy causes solid surfaces to resonate. The reverse is hardly efficient. :nonod:

      I saw something like this a couple years ago... It "works" but it's far from an audiophile solution :roll:

        Too bad it isn't called the Sensational Hidden Inwall Transducer... that would probably tell prospective buyers all they need to know. :>)

          It's worse than you think. :nonod:

          IIRC, a few years back there were several threads in another major audio forum about some guy (in Chicago, possibly?) that swore he could "tune" his room via adjusting the tension on his sheetrock wall by tightening and loosening the screws holding the sheetrock to the studs. I kid you not. The story was backed up by some people that claimed to have heard the guy demonstrate it. I don't believe it was a joke as I remember some comments started to get a bit heated as people debated it.

          YMMV (and probably will).

            Many years ago there was a device called a 'Star Transducer'. Anything you attached it to became a speaker. The SQ was terrible.
