ATLAS SOUND & VISION LAUNCHES LOEWE SPEAKER 2GO IN SINGAPORE

Premium German home entertainment brand unveils its first portable speaker for an immersive sound experience on the move, available at the Atlas Experience Audio Visual Boutique and online28

AUGUST 2013, SINGAPORE – Loewe, the world’s leading premium home entertainment brand, together with Atlas Sound & Vision, today unveiled its first portable speaker in Singapore.

Measuring a compact 24 x 10.5 x 5.1 cm, the Loewe Speaker 2go packs a punch, featuring two combined mid-range speakers and tweeters and a woofer for a total 40 watts of music power.

The space-saving bass reflex tube ensures the correct presence of music in low frequency ranges.

Besides being equipped with Bluetooth and near field communication technology (NFC), the 2.1 speaker system uses the latest apt-X codec and also features an integrated voice-optimised microphone with automatic echo cancellation, allowing the device to be turned into a fully-fledged hands-free system ideal for telephone conferences on the go.

In addition, the Loewe Speaker 2go comes with an integrated table stand flex set-up solution which positions the speaker at an optimal angle of 7.5° for favourable sound distribution when extended.

This table stand flex can be extended and retracted by the user simply pressing the top of the Speaker 2go.

Rich sound

Despite its compact dimensions (24 x 10.5 x 5.1 cm), the Loewe Speaker 2go delivers rich 2.1 stereo sound across a wide frequency range of 80 Hz to 20 kHz by incorporating three digital amplifiers (Class D) for 40 watts of total music power.

The speaker system consists of two combined mid-range speakers and tweeters (10 watts each) and a woofer (20 watts).

The space-saving bass reflex tube ensures the correct presence of music in low frequency ranges while the robust solid aluminium frame supports undistorted sound reproduction.

Connect easily with NFC and Bluetooth

Connectivity is a key theme of the Loewe Speaker 2go.

The new near field communication technology (NFC) makes it easier to connect a wide range of modern mobile devices to the speaker.

Simply place your NFC-compatible mobile device on the contact point indicated on the speaker to create the Bluetooth connection and you are ready to start playing music, with no need for complex settings in the device menu.

After confirmation, the device can also connect automatically via Bluetooth. You can save up to five Bluetooth devices that connect seamlessly, depending on availability, as soon as the speaker is switched on.

To ensure optimal music transmission quality when using Bluetooth, the Speaker 2go uses the apt-X codec to meet even the highest demands.

The Bluetooth connection covers a range of up to 10 metres. The 3.5 mm stereo jack can of course also be used for sound reproduction – a cable is included with delivery.

The Loewe Speaker 2go also comes with a USB port that can be used to charge USB-powered small devices, thereby ensuring that they are ready to use at all times during travels.

Attractive details

The Loewe Speaker 2go comes in a varnished and robust metal grille which provides maximum protection for the speaker as well as with a lightweight, reversible carrying bag for optimal protection on the move.

White LEDs indicate the operating status of the speaker. Available in Aluminium Silver or Aluminium Black, the Loewe Speaker 2go’s controls are integrated with the surface and a main control switch helps prevent accidental switching on.

The Loewe Speaker 2go is now available for SG$599 at the Atlas Experience Audio Visual Boutique at TripleOne Somerset and the Atlas eStore at www.atlas-sv.com/estore.
