Rythmbath Turns Bathtub into Speaker

May 5th, 2008 by BallerHouse

Invisibale speakers? More like non-existant speakers. Input Group brings us the Rythmbath System which turns any acrylic bathtub into a highly refined audio loudspeaker. The idea of a bathtub as a speaker strikes us as one of the more baller bathroom upgrades we’ve come across. Listening to music near water already had positive effects on the sound waves, but this takes it to a whole new level.

The Rythmbath system works under the same principle as an acoustic guitar or violin, using vibrations to amplify sound. An electro-acoustic excitation device is attached to the underside of your bath to transfer vibrations and turn it into a loudspeaker. A vibrating and musical bathtub? Sounds like your girlfriend might take an extra hour in the tub, which leaves more time for those Ballerhouse recommended games you’ve been collecting.

The system amplifies sound with a full or empty tub and includes an FM radio, touch sensitive control panel, and external connection to your iPod or home HIFI system. Input Groups tagline “see nothing, yet hear everything” couldn’t be more fitting.
