Could be eventually be the ultimate WAF speaker system?

Making your car's interior surfaces into "speakers" via actuators.....if installed in all sorts of home furnishings could satisy the most demanding WAF as well as audiophile?

Interesting. But how does it really sound and measure in the car.
Next, home version. Wonder what that sub will look like.

Well if your car's window can be a sub....but bass with actuators in homes already happens now.

That is how i got approval for 2 subs in our living room. I integrated them into cupboard. When it is closed it is just a cupboard. When you open it you will see 12 inch black drivers which were shock to my wife when she first saw them. Also I put my front speakers behind curtains. So in normal position you just see bookshelf surround speakers in my room which look not too bad in the overal interior.

That's not quite the same thing as converting a normal object via use of actuators...but a good WAF approach !

Waf sucks...

I guess so, never personally had to deal with it....but feel for those who do. Would be pretty cool to have basically an invisible sound system, tho I suppose it would have to be built from scratch rather than simply adding into existing rooms...talk about a custom home!

To me, this would be adding more rattles into the interior of a car. I'm sure the demo has been prepped really well to make it sound good. I'll wait and see how this develops.

LOL good point, altho some car interiors might be "tight" enough
