Carlos Rossi's "jugcoustics" sound system

Philip Wong | Feb 11, 2008

We know there is more than one way to skin a cat, but hats off to Carlos Rossi vineyards for conceiving possibly the world's first Jugology-based speakers. The Sangria Sound System is definitely one of a kind designed ground up using the company's glass wine jugs. In this case, old salvaged loudspeaker components are stuffed into a collection of custom-cut 4-liter and 1.5-liter Rossi jugs. Six of these are mounted on a neon tube which doubles as a speaker stands, complete with a soft under glow for that extra special touch and bling.

Satisfaction is apparently guaranteed, too. This is what Carlo Rossi has to say about its ~~5.1~~ 6.1 (are you people drunk?) loudspeakers. "Thanks to the Sangria Surround Sound System, whether you're watching an action movie or getting down with your bad self on the living room, you're sure to feel the bass in your face while enjoying the subtle, fruity waft of Sangria in the air." This seems to be one of its many jug design showpieces which includes couch, TV console and bookshelf. Too bad, we seriously doubt you will find one of these on sale anytime soon.
