The imaging is probably terrible with the speakers located down around one's waste waist.
I bet the ambience is a really dead in there anyway.
I would think true audiophiles would prefer greater dispersion.. like dust in the wind.

I wonder how many are interred with headphones?
Perhaps in-ears would be more appropriate for eternal slumber or at least the open-casket funeral service to assist the deceased drowning out the room chatter.

Imagining future civilizations unearthing such a sarcophagus and drawing conclusions about our current day pharaoh’s conceptions of the afterlife.

I' ve joked for years about needing a coffin with a sound system to catch up on my listening and now they come out with one and it doesn't play flacs.

Yeah... Two tweeters and sub directed at your crotch hardly seems ideal. But I do like the networking capabilities here.

That said... You're dead. It might be cathartic for your family (maybe). But who cares.

Read the fine print.  It only plays music from The Dead.

I bet there is a hack for death metal playlists..
and you must admit there would be a certain irony in eternally looping Stairway to Heaven or Hotel California, over-palying them even more than has been done over the past decades on hit rock radio- and in so doing, digging out a whole new level of hell in Dante's Inferno.
