The speakers from Pet Acoustics are billed as the world's first sound system designed to cater to the unique audio sensitivities of dogs, cats and horses.
Because pets can hear frequencies that are outside the normal range of the human ear, some sounds can startle pets or cause them discomfort. This system allows you to enjoy your music without causing your pet any discomfort. The company also makes an iPhone app that allows you to play music directly from your iPhone while eliminating frequencies that may annoy your pet.
