Hannes Harms Flat speaker: The thinnest speaker in the world

Posted: 06 Aug 2012 08:08 AM PDT

Technology is getting smaller with each day, so it's no wonder to see speakers that come with reduced size as well.

Hannes Harms designed probably one of the first flat speakers in the world while reducing material, volume, and components thanks to flat electronics. This flat speaker is made from perforated sheet of acid-etched stainless steel, and it is only 0.5mm thick so it will look sleek next to your computer.

We have to mention that this speaker is so thin, so it can even fit in an envelope, and it can be assembled simply by bending. So far, we have no information regarding the sound power and sound quality, but we'll keep an close eye on this speaker.

This flat speaker looks amazing, and it will save you some space on your table, and as for the availability, the prototype of this flat speaker was shown at RCA show in the UK, and so far, there's no information regarding the release date or price.
