Lovers of music appreciate that the medium stimulates more than just the sense of hearing, and the Pop-Up Bass adds even another dimension. Listening to songs can conjure feelings, but this [sound system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audio-pro-t3-jepson-edition) will excite your eyes as well.

The L-shaped subwoofer has a rectilinear shape that's capped with an elegant glass dish. This transparent jar holds a collection of Styrofoam balls of various sizes, giving the electronic device a curious appearance at first glance.

Once you connect your media player to the amplifier, you'll see what's so special about Daniela Mata's Pop-Up Bass Speaker. The [low-frequency vibrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audac) that are emitted cause the light spheres to bounce up and down like popcorn kernels, performing as a [tangible visualizer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/econik-1851).
