The Levitabeats Sound System affords a super-sensory experience by which you're stimulated through your sense of hearing and your sight. The setup's unique and futuristic functionality is sure to impress with the way that it [visualizes volume and rhythm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightboks).

The base of the [vase-shaped amplifier](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sonique) is the powerhouse, featuring 360-degree speakers that direct most audio outwards but send the bass up the flue. A liquid nitrogen tank and electromagnet separate this amazing machine from its basic noise-emitting counterparts. The latter features facilitate the [gravity-defying movement of a luminous disk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audiotechnica-hotaru).

The transparent chimney of Jongha Lee's Levitabeats Sound System houses this glowing ring. When the gadget is switched on, the hoop levitates and hovers halfway up. When a track is playing, the disk rises and falls, bouncing to the pulse of the music.
