Abstract: A floating sound system for use in a swimming pool or the like has a radio, tape player, power supply, and controls. The power supply unit nests within a toroidal float, being attached thereto by straps. The radio and associated components are located in a domed housing resting upon the float. The sound system is built to disassemble into these three subassemblies. The resultant sound system floats stably in water, and, due to speaker cones arranged parallel to the water surface, projects sound very effectively.
