Sharp List: Caruso by Paolo Cappello Cabinet Speaker

The biggest problem with Bluetooth speakers? No matter how great they sound or easy they are to use, they’re almost always so damn pedestrian looking — soulless bricks that add nothing in the way of ambience to their surroundings.

That, however, isn’t a issue for the Caruso, a new state-of-the-art audio system developed by Italian industrial designer Paolo Cappello. Using a modernized ceramic gramophone to deliver crisp, high-quality sound, the minimalist cabinet can be made-to-order using any combination of six different horn finishes and wood colours to match just about any room or environment.
