Torii Gate made of speakers in Kamiyama, Tokushima. You can connect your phone to it and play anything.

This is impressive in so many ways.

why didn\u2019t they do this in the first place ?

Are you seriously asking why, a couple thousand years ago when gates like this started being built, they didn\u2019t make them out of modern electrical speakers?

Yeah. Makes sense to me, I guess

\u2026.okay, repeat after me.


You cannot build something in 100 CE out of something that won\u2019t be invented until the 1950s CE.

I don\u2019t follow your logic

don\u2019t listen to that poster, traditional amplifier torii gates were dismantled in the Edo period on order of Tokugawa Iemitsu (1623 - 1651), a noted devotee of acoustic enka music, in order to suppress the popular visual kei movement.
