Bwaa ha ha ha ha! Just awesome! Why didn't someone come up with this idea before! I gotta get one! Sadly, my car is still at the VDC so I'm stuck waiting probably until the end of next week.

That's a Bazooka Mobile Audio product. Been on the market for at least 4/5 years or so. Comes in a purple non-amped version too.

the Cyclone - it uses the motor to oscillate the vanes back and forth creating bass notes instead of the traditionally ineffecient method of the electromagnetic voicecoil/cone arrangement we've used for 70+ years. Phoenix Gold worked on it throughout the 1990's....one of the few 'new' speaker designs in generations.
