Audio giant Pioneer brings a novel eco-speaker:Â S-A4SPT-PM and -VP, the Pure-Malt speakers made from 100-year-old white oak whisky barrels.
Gizmodo points out that chances are the material is more gimmick-y than green, but the Clean Japan Center still saw fit to award the speakers a resource recycling technology prize.
These speakers have been crafted from 100-year-old white oak whisky barrels. The wood has absorbed the whiskey, creating a distinctively smooth and rich acoustic quality, unlike that of any virgin wood.
You have the choice between Vintage Darkwood or Original Lightwood Whisky Speakers.
