Mid-Range Audio Goes To The Dogs



From the product description for the dog's-body-shaped speakers that go by the name of (what else?) Woofers: "This is functional kitsch; the wrong becomes the new right. By adding a function to an otherwise grotesque object, it acquires new aesthetic values, becoming an object of desire.... Ofcourse this speakersytem, with it's unusual set-up, is not to hold up against a high-end/high costs speaker system, but it's engineered by a professional audio studio, and sounds remarkably well, compared to your everyday speakersystem!" In other words, the €599 sticker price won't necessarily buy you a good set of speakers, but man, will it freak out any kids that you'll be forced to invite over for the holidays!
