We transform phonograph horn styles into smartphone speaker docks. Our acoustic speakers don't need cables or batteries, they simply amplify the sound from your phone's speaker. We only use genuine vintage speaker horns, not modern reproductions, into reclaimed timber and as so each speaker is unique.
