Alfonso de Rojas Spends 400 Hours Making $60,000 Speakers
Meghan Young — November 10, 2010 — Art & Design
Alfonso de Rojas is one determined fellow. After seeing Bowser & Wilkins' Nautilus speakers on a website, he wanted a set badly; however, the speakers' hefty price tag of $60,000 must have deterred him from doing so.
Using 400 hours, Alfonso de Rojas therefore recreated these speakers, with the final product being nothing short of amazing. They look exactly like the original speaks, except with a different paint job. See this piece for yourselves in the featured gallery.
