By and large, speaker technology doesn't change very often—sound is created by electrical vibrations generated by magnetism and passed through paper cones into your ear holes. But what happens when you take away the woofers and tweeters? You can't jam out—unless you have the Vulcan Phantom Solo Speaker, that is.

The Vulcan Phantom Solo Speaker is an omni-directional, 360° vibration device that uses any available surface as a speaker. Its patented Surface Fusion Technology generates sound by turning solid, smooth surfaces into loudspeakers. If you were to hold the Vulcan Phantom in your hand up to your head, you'd only hear the slightest sound of music, not much more than a car driving away down the street. But when you place the Phantom on a wood, glass or marble surface, the room explodes with music!

Simply charge the unit's battery with its included power/usb cable, and you're almost ready for Party Rock. Plug in any MP3 player, Xylophone, or Ogg Vorbis Linux box into the mini-USB cable, and the rest is cake. The level of output changes depending on the density of the surface you use. Different materials react to the Phantom in different ways, so don't be scared to experiment! Who knew that Grandma's davenport could throw down so hard?
