SpectraSound
We present you with SpectraSound, the device that uses laser modulation to send your music across the dance floor... or all the way to NGC 5194. SpectraSound is perfect for the home, classroom, lab and parties! We're selling this kit as part of LaserFest, the 50th anniversary of the laser. With mirrors, you will be able to send your music anywhere! Use your hand or a comb to create scratches like a real laser DJ.
Find out how to get your hands and ears on your own SpectraSound kit.
