Pregnancy headphones/ speakers?

lgreen · 29th December 2008, 09:08 PM

I am pleased to report that the swimmers are working!

In order to keep '80s music popular for the nextgen, I'd like to DIY some tranducers to mount on a large belly... Babies apparently can hear quite well and many people use headphones but I have to think that there is a way to do something that couples a little better.

Ideas?

Congratulations!

But leave the poor fetus alone! How would you like to be forced to listen at length to something with the sonic quality of elevator background music? Seems pretty much THE definition of psychological torture.

"Sonic Impact's Sound unique "stick-on" speakers not only sound great, but also are great fun! Their patented NXT Technology allows them to produce full-range sound when attached to any large, thin vibrating membrane."

Not to sure about WAF though

There are studies dealing with featal damages due to ambient noise.
And those were not talking of noise that was intentionally coupled to the body but transferred through the air.

So be careful.
