Picture a helmet.
There are five speakers attached to it.
There are pairs of tiny speakers on each side, the are mounted to the inside of the helmet directly in front of and behind the ears. These pairs will handle the effects of Left/Right panning and the sensations of Forward/Behind as well. A fifth speaker will rest against the base of the skull (like support on a newer version bike helmet). This speaker will serve as a (sub) and will carry the low frequencies directly to the skull causing the cranial bones to vibrate and deep sensations to be felt by the listener. This system will be concealed probably by a "fishing" or "pinhat" style hat (or a Kangol) and a white cord will connect it to the new ipod HD [still under development by Apple]. These headphones will NOT be compatible with most electronics because they will require more power that a headphone jack normally supplies (this would result in low output). An adapter may be manufactured or possibly all new electronics will be compatible with such a system.
