Can this speaker also be laid down? I would like to use it in a car.

The Ultimate Ears Hyperboom is a portable Bluetooth speaker, but it is not specifically designed to be used lying down. Here are some points to consider:
- Size and weight: the speaker measures 364 mm in height, 190 mm in width and 190 mm in depth and weighs 5.9 kg. Its size and weight make it less practical to use in a lying position in a car.
- Speaker arrangement: The Hyperboom has two 114 mm subwoofers, two 25 mm tweeters and two passive radiators. This arrangement is ideal for vertical operation to produce the best possible sound image.
- Stability: Although the speaker is robust and IPX4 protected against splashing and impact water, it is not recommended to use it in a horizontal position as this could affect the acoustics and stability.
To summarise, although it is technically possible to use the Hyperboom in a car, it is not the best configuration for optimal performance and stability. It would be advisable to use the speaker in its original, vertical position.
