A musician’s challenge is how to make the next three minutes captivate the audience—new aural experiences for some, life-changing ones for others.
Balmuda’s founder and CEO Gen Terao was a musician and so he knows that the sound musicians hear differs from that audiences do and that studio recordings and live performances create different feelings. That’s why he’s been working laboriously on the creation of a music-listening device that would create those same memorable moments as if we’re listening to it live. In other words, Balmuda The Speaker, a state-of-the-art Bluetooth speaker, is a product outcome of his true love and sheer understanding of music—the same way he made Balmuda The Toaster the brand’s signature product a few years ago.
Enhancing our music-listening experience with advanced technology, the 77-millimeter upward firing full-range Balmuda The Speaker creates 360-degree audio dispersion, guaranteeing the same quality no matter where listeners are, keeping the original mix’s balance and dimension while fine-tuning it. With special acoustic design, the singing voice sounds as if the singer were close by.
As for the visual thrill, the LED lights in the vacuum tubes at the speaker’s center flicker in accordance with the music and can be adjusted in three modes for different light intensity. Music beats control the color and speed of the lights. A secret of this LiveLight Function is the algorithm which can transform sound, of various intensity, into light in only 0.004 seconds, creating their smooth sync. A new music-listening experience, thus, has been created with a fine blend of design and technology—”Hearing it with your ears while seeing it with your eyes”.
