Acoustic speakers are comprised, in essence, of a thin diaphram to couple sound to the air, and a driver to resonate the diaphram. In these speakers, the driver is optimized for light weight, and the diaphram is a special mylar balloon, which enables sound of surprisingly high fidelity to emanate from the silvery orb floating overhead. It is anchored by a stylized base which contains a miniature amplifier, 9 volt battery, and plug for connecting to standard headphone jacks.
