 Hey everybody, it's Chris Welch of The Verge and your eyes are not deceiving you. This speaker is levitating. So this is the Mars speaker. It's by a company called Crazy Baby. It was crowdfunded about two years ago and now you can buy it for $329 which is pretty expensive but it levitates. Not many speakers can say they do that. There are two pieces to it. There's this big bulky base on bottom and on top is what's called the Mars Craft. So this is actually a standalone Bluetooth speaker. You can pop it off and take it with you. So the Mars Craft has a six hour battery so you can take it with you, take it out of the house, things like that. Just like any Bluetooth speaker. So that's pretty handy. When you pop it back on, this is the subwoofer so the audio quality steps up a notch and it sounds pretty decent. I mean I wouldn't say it sounds better than any $200 Bluetooth speaker so the hook here is definitely that it levitates. For what reason? Why? Who can say? So it stays in place pretty well. It'll take some light bumps. You can kind of spin it and kind of mess around with it and there's a button on bottom that actually turns this on. Let me search around for it. When you do, it makes some really dramatic sounds so you know you've turned on a $320 levitating speaker. Very dramatic. So this piece is actually waterproof up to three feet which is pretty nice. You can take it, toss it in the pool, not too deep but if it falls into like the shallow end you should be okay. Take it to the beach, take it to the pool. Pretty handy. But again the audio quality is not too much. That's not really why you're buying this. You're buying it for the stunt of impressing your friends and family, freaking people out, that kind of thing. So the Mars uses magnets to pull off its tricks and actually this part can be stuck to any metal surface, say your fridge and shower. So if you want something like this in your life, it's $329. You can buy it at Amazon and also Brookstone because of course Brookstone would sell just this kind of thing. And that's the Mars by Crazy Baby. It's a floating levitating speaker. So it takes some bumps pretty well. It'll stay in place and just kind of hang out. Oops. There is a limit to it. But uh... Okay.
