Kozmophone is an updated take on Thomas Edison’s phonograph with touches of from the past, present, and future in its design. The classic horn-style speaker remains, but rotates a full 360-degrees for uniform quality listening. The speaker can also be removed and used alone through any Bluetooth device. There’s even a holographic display inside the main cylinder and ambient lighting. Kozmophone is currently waiting for its fully-funded Kickstarter campaign to wrap up, so if you’re into it get in on the ground level.
