# Trumpeting iPhone Speakers The Analog Tele-Phonographer Amplifies Your Cellphone's Sound By Meghan Young | Published 2011-04-14 | Updated 2011-04-17 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/analog-tele-phonographer References: [dvice](http://dvice.com/archives/2011/04/trumpet-speaker.php) & [heartlessmachine](http://heartlessmachine.com/section/220780_Analog_Tele_Phonographer.html) If you're looking for a slightly steampunk-like speaker for your precious [iPhone 4](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-4-concept), then I'm more than sure the Analog Tele-Phonographer is just what you have been waiting for. Especially perfect for those who appreciate the look of the trumpet, this interesting sculpture amplifies your mobile phone's sound without the need for electricity or power of any kind. Created by artist Christopher Locke, the Analog Tele-Phonographer is completely handmade, and you'll have to pay a pretty penny for that little detail. Priced at $400, it might not be the cheapest iPhone 4 speaker on the market, but it is certainly the coolest. The two Analog Tele-Phonographer speakers photographed are just prototypes. More versions are currently in production, according to this very talented artist. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 23% | Activity: 17% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Steampunk-inspired Speakers:** Opportunity for creating unique and stylish speakers with a steampunk aesthetic. - **Non-electric Amplification:** Potential for developing amplification solutions that do not require electricity or power. - **Handmade Artisan Speakers:** Market for high-end, handmade speakers that offer a unique and luxurious experience. ### Who This Affects Most - **Consumer Electronics:** Innovation opportunities for designing new and visually striking speaker devices. - **Home Decor:** Opportunity for creating speakers that double as artistic sculptures to enhance home interiors. - **Art and Design:** Market for artisan speakers that blend artistry and functionality. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Transparent Gramophone-Like Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-speaker-concept.md) - [Phone Charger-Infused Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phone-chargerinfused-speaker.md) - [Nautilus Shell Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steampunk-nautilus.md) - [Compact Phone Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thinn.md) - [Transparent Loudspeaker Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loudspeaker-system.md) - [Speaker-Centric Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/music-phone.md) - [Freestanding Smartphone Dock Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jteman-phone-stand-and-speaker.md) - [Historical Landmark-Inspired Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/historical-landmarkinspired-speaker.md) - [Magnetic Smartphone Audio Amplifiers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hires-headphone-amplifier.md)
