weighted companion cube subwoofer is no lie

Finally, there’s a Weighted Companion Cube mod that actually has enough heft to earn its name. This custom-built subwoofer bears a striking resemblance to that little cube that you had to euthanize the last time you played Portal.

Modder d_stilgar spent the last several months painstakingly recreating the details of the Companion Cube, carefully mounting a heavy duty subwoofer and amplifier into the cabinet.

And when the lights go down, the subwoofer glows in the dark, thanks to some cleverly integrated pink EL lighting.

D_stilgar says he’s working on a pair of matching Portal-inspired speakers, but won’t reveal what they look like yet. I’d wager that he’s working on a couple of slices of cake. But then again, that could be a lie.
