No Comment: The iPhone Megaphone

by Mike Schramm Aug 23rd 2011 at 12:00AM

We've actually seen this megaphone idea implemented before. While it's probably easiest to just go ahead and plug your iPhone in rather than trying to mechanically amplify the sound waves with a series of cones and chambers, that hasn't stopped some designers from putting together some intriguing devices for making your iPhone louder (and clearer?).

All that said, we'd like to say this "acoustic horn" manufactured out of ceramic and placed on a walnut tripod was just another jokey accessory, but given how well-designed it looks? We'll just say: No comment.

Actually, quite pleasantly, aesthetically pleasing. Like a work of art. Better than some of the electronic attachments on the market today. Wonder how efficient it is?

Why do they say "No Comment" if they then go on to comment about something? Doesn't people at TUAW understand what "No Comment" means?

Design wise that piece is pretty interesting and would probably work great in the right environment and space. This one looks like a more elegant version of the Arkcanary ii.
