Keep your belongings safe and sand-free on the beach. THIS IMAGE FEATURES A PROTOTYPE.

What's more relaxing than listening to music on the beach? But isn't it annoying to have to choose between a poor quality speaker, or carrying around a heavy speaker system with you?

With The Crown you don't need to choose: the multifunctional HD Audio Pail has the best 360 degree sound and is easy to carry with you.

What's more, you can keep all your belongings in one place without getting sand all over them. Just throw your keys, mobile phones and clothes in. Don't worry, the sound quality won't suffer!

You can even use The Crown as a water pail in the sauna.

Or would you rather keep your refreshing drinks, well, refreshing and cold? No problem, you can use The Crown as a cooler by throwing in ice or freezer blocks while listening to your favorite tunes. Cheers!

Cheers! (This picture features a PROTOTYPE.)

THE STORY BEHIND THE CROWN

The guys behind the Crown: Jari-Matti Kärkiö and Jarno Voutilainen

On the right, you can see Jarno Voutilainen. Jarno is a typical Finnish man: he likes saunas and building things with his own hands. Therefore Jarno was pleased when he got to renovate his sauna two years ago. He was pleased with the result yet felt like something was missing as he wanted it to be extraordinary. The first version of his product was a very basic DIY, dimly lit sauna pail.

We'll be honest: it didn't look that great. But Jarno started working on the product with his now business partner, Jari-Matti Kärkiö, and they've worked hard to develop the product into so much more than a sauna pail. Jarno says: The Crown was inspired be the sauna and Nordic design, but we soon realized that the shape was perfect for a speaker. Having always been interested in developing new project and studied engineering, I understood the possibilities.Even sound engineers have been surprised by the quality of sound. I think we even surprised ourselves. And - even though the prototype photos may not bring justice to it, the ready product looks pretty cool as well.

Jarno and Jari-Matti not only developed the product to where it is now, but got the product tested and patented, and negotiated a good deal with a factory specialized in similar products. Now they just need your help to get enough pre-orders to start the production.

If you talk to us here or on social media, you'll probably be chatting with Salla Hänninen, who's recently started helping us with communications and marketing (and writes these descriptions).

We're also grateful for all the help by these people:
