20,000 watts in the snow
Posted by on Wednesday, February 14, 2007 at 11:16 am

Snow Horn

With all this snow, instead of complaining, one team of students decided to do something constructive — literally. They built a loudspeaker primarily out of snow (although the drivers were obviously more than just frozen water). It was part of a snow statue contest at Michigan Tech, and while they lost on a technicality, it’s still damned impressive.

So y’all quitchyerbitchin’ about class not being canceled and go build a snowman or something. :)

    As a longtime audiophile, I find that quite impressive. I wonder what it sounded like–probably very, very loud.

  3. Brian Foster Says:

    But does it go to 11?

  4. Becca Says:

    I’d love to go build a snowman, but I can’t. I’m in class. :-)

    That statue-building contest is part of Winter Carnival, my favorite time of year in the U.P. Check out some of the other statues from this year, they are all amazing, but they’re all engineering students up there so that’s expected:)
