Don't smoke your speakers...

[EWBrown]

And yet another use for that wondous weed, Hemp:

HempTone Speakers from OmegaLoudspeakers.com

This could give the term of "smoking your speakers" a whole new meaning... Yellow_Light_Colorz_PDT_09

And if you prefer a little Red Wine:

Well, they are single driver with a 3" port, then they also come with nerfballs to block the port.

Somebodies certainly smoking something... Yellow_Light_Colorz_PDT_09

[EWBrown]

I wonder if they can deliver enough bass to blow the nerf ball out...

"Hemptones" sounds like a good name for a Rastafarian / Reggae band.

Eminence produces a 12 inch hemp-cone instrument speaker they call "Cannabis Rex" in their "Patriot" series.

I don't know, maybe a Reggie/R&B crossover band?

[EWBrown]

Maybe those Cannabis Rex speakers are designed to work in a Fender tWEED amplifier...

OK... I think with that, we've driven this subject into the ground.


And remember, the seeds of America's greatness are in little film canisters all over the country!

They would probably only be one hitter wonders.

Couldn't resist, Carl.

Shannon. <sigh> It's that sort of thing that always ends with pitchforks, torches, and the townsfolk storming the castle. <rolf>

And I always wondered why so much audio gear comes from the area around Seattle....

Hi All,

Seattle can have its Hempfest, and you all can make silly jokes about the weed, but I'm here to remind you that the U.S. capitol for non-jumprope grade recreational hemp is right here in Humboldt County. Furthermore, the largest U.S. retailer of Baggies is the Sentry Market in Garberville.

So there.

Well, I certainly think that Eric has set the right tone for this thread.

Na, Na, Na, Na, Boo, Boo! Yellow_Light_Colorz_PDT_31 <grin>

Now, where are my &*^%& cheetoes. Yellow_Light_Colorz_PDT_09


And this is certainly my last missive on this subject (unless it's not).

[EWBrown]

Seattle has its Hempfest, Boston has their annual Pot Rally (held last weekend, and no, I did not attend...) As usual the local PD narco squads had a field day...

Here is a writeup on the merits of hemp speaker cones:

Just when you thought the last roach was burned out, some more hemp cone speakers have arrived on the scene.
