How, exactly, did people savor music to the fullest before there were bright, pretty things to look at while it played? When Mozart played a heart-rending sonata, did the assembled nobles simply stare transfixed at flickering candlelight? Did minstrels gaze just gaze blankly into sunsets as they idly strummed their lutes?
Never mind. Those both suddenly sound pretty beautiful themselves.
Science and audio-visual engineering being what they are, the JBL Pluse 2 Bluetooth Speaker may not ever exactly exceed the poignant grandeur of those meetings of light and sound, but it does add a spark of color in a vibrant lightshow synchronized to the music pumping through it.
Listeners can control the dancing light flashes grooving along to the tunes of their choice by pointing JBL’s Prism color sensor lens at a color and waiting for the speaker to offer its best mimic and an accompanying app allows for customization of the whole light show. The Pulse 2’s JBLConnect technology keeps the speaker compatible with numerous devices and one charge of the internal battery is good for 10 rainbow-bright hours of playback. The speaker also happens to be splashproof, making it an ideal guest of honor at any beach or pool bash.
You can get your hands on a JBL Plus 2 of your own this month around the world for $200.
