Object 6 Speaker

A premium speaker inspired by the shape of sound.

MoMA Exclusive: Inspired by the concept of sculpting the structure of sound, the Object 6 Speaker’s graceful curves and balanced form provide both a fascinating object d’art and an exceptional sound experience. Handcrafted by skilled artisans at Ballon de Paris, the Object Speaker series is the brainchild of the Garrel family, who founded a violin atelier in 1921 and have been renowned for their auditory innovations ever since.

With the Object 6, they hoped to create a speaker with extraordinary performance that “expresses its presence through proportion and harmony” instead of high-tech bells and whistles. Their proprietary, pipe-like design minimizes distortion, and the use of vicuña wool in the speaker coverings enhances sound absorption and eliminates noise, delivering superior performance across low, mid, and high frequencies. Over 92% of the product is made from recyclable materials, contributing to reduced environmental impact.
