# Blasting Bullhorn Sound Systems Listen to Music Loud and Clear With These Megaphone Speakers By Summer Luu | Published 2011-03-05 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/megaphone-speakers References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2011/03/04/is-it-a-megaphone/) & [core77](http://www.core77.com/blog/object_culture/stockholm_furniture_fair_2011corentin_dombrechts_megaphones_speakers_18557.asp) Pump up the music and let the sounds blare from these Megaphone Speakers by Corentin Dombrecht, a loud design that will surely blast you away. This young Belgian designer drew inspiration from the wave of protests and activism that has been currently sweeping the globe (i.e. the recent revolutionary Egypt protest). The speakers are made of wood with a [distinct Dutch craftsmanship](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-craftmanship-a-new-world) and is shaped like a booming bullhorn. The tunes-playing product carries a [nostalgic vintage feel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aura-speaker) too. Showing off his work at the '101% Designed in Brussels' fair, he hopes to get some manufacturers interested in his creative and clever sound system. Considering the piercing design of these incredible Megaphone Speakers, I don't think it will be long before they get some much-deserved attention. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.8/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 10% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Retro-inspired Audio:** Creating audio products with a nostalgic vintage feel to appeal to consumers seeking a unique and stylish listening experience. - **Activism-inspired Design:** Developing products that draw inspiration from current social and political movements, helping consumers express their beliefs through their purchases. - **Unique Speaker Shapes:** Exploring unconventional speaker designs, such as bullhorns, to create visually striking and attention-grabbing audio devices. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Audio Equipment Manufacturing:** Manufacturers have an opportunity to create retro-inspired audio products that stand out in a crowded market and cater to consumers looking for a unique listening experience. - **Home Decor and Design:** Designers can integrate activism-inspired elements into home decor products, allowing consumers to showcase their values and beliefs through their interior design choices. - **Event Planning and Entertainment:** Event planners and entertainment companies can incorporate unique speaker shapes, like bullhorns, into their setups to create visually impactful and memorable experiences for attendees. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ludicrously Loud Bluetooth Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loud-bluetooth-speaker.md) - [Transparent Gramophone-Like Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-speaker-concept.md) - [Edgy Speaker Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brutalist-speaker.md) - [Chinese Lantern-Like Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sirocco-speaker.md) - [Industrially Designed Desktop Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/desktop-speaker.md) - [Stylish Low-Tech Sound Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frame-sound.md) - [Whimsically Designed Speaker Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-for-ara-fs1-and-fs2.md) - [Concert-Producing Music Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stagespeaker.md) - [Headphone-Holding Speaker Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cornucopia-speaker.md)
