LG’s PJ9 floating speaker is technology gone mad in the best way possible

LG announced the PJ9 at CES earlier this month, the amplifier with a levitating station for its floating bluetooth speaker. Check it out in action below.

The system uses electromagnets to keep the speaker afloat, a few inches above the levitating station, before it descends to the base as the battery runs out.

DJ Mag Tech hasn’t had its hands on the LG PJ9 yet, but those at the tech powerhouse say that the speaker’s low-end sound quality is taken care of by a subwoofer built into the bass.

The speaker follows the first levitating turntable from MAG-LEV Audio that landed last October.
