Hah. The boombox is back!

 

[SgtBilko]

Don't know what it sounds like, but it looks like cxxp!

Don't see why this is news...

As you said in the article, dozens of manufacturers make such devices. For example, I occasionally use my Audioengine A5's to stream music wirelessly.

Did they consult with Noctua for the color palet?

Good company with -usually- good products, but who designed that ugly box ?
Seriously, would you want that on your shelf ? :-(

Not bad, but a little bit more design could of went into it. Not saying I'm in to companies like Apple being all fashion and design rather than functionality, but this just looks offensive to the eye.

The product is great I suppose, but like everyone else, the design is a bit iffy.

looks woody and tacky

Pfft. Slim Devices (now Logitech), Apple, Sonos and others did this forever ago. And their stuff doesn't look like it just escaped from 1965.

It only streams sound 100 meters, it shoots rays of ugly as far as the eye can see.
