Consumers are becoming more focused on [immersive multimedia experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cambridge-audio-evo-one) than ever, which is something the 'Hype' hi fi speaker aims to provide. Compact and conical in design, the 'Hype' speaker features an [omnidirectional design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acoustic-sculpture-speaker) that plays music in a powerful way that helps to envelop the listener without the need for large equipment.

Designed by Namik Yigit Ildas, the 'Hype' speaker features an exterior design that's crafted using [fine fabric and raw wood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audio-pro-a10-mkii-black) to help make it a stylish accent in a space. The 'Hype' hi fi speaker features two passive speakers, two mid-range speakers and even one speaker that's designed for low-frequencies. This enables the unit to play music in a much more holistic way that enables it to fill a space.
