An example of the Little Horn Speakers is shown below in white on natural:

The Little Horn Speakers continue to generate more news and publicity for Specimen Products by recently being listed as one of The Year’s Sharpest Products in the Play section of I.D. Magazine’s review of the year’s most notable products and appearing alongside Peter Travers and Nikki Reed in a video interview published at RollingStone.com.  Additional news regarding the Little Horns can be found on Specimens’ news page.

The listening party was a lot of fun and the new speakers sound as amazing as they look.  Thank you Specimen for inviting me to your listening party and congratulations on your creative design.  I hope the Little Horns are a runaway success!
