SAN DIEGO, Nov. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ –Sony Electronics Inc. today announced that the LSPX-S2 Glass Sound Speaker is available for the first time in the United States. This unique and elegant portable home speaker produces stunning sound quality with calming ambient illumination.
“We’ve found a way to creatively pair high-end audio with warm luminance,” commented Mike Fasulo, president and chief operating officer, Sony Electronics North America. “Particularly relevant as a counterbalance to today’s challenging external environment, we see creating technology that entertains and elicits a positive emotional response as increasingly important for our industry.”
LSPX-S2 Key Features:
- Crystal Clear Sound: Fill every corner of the room with exceptional sound, thanks to Sony’s Advanced Vertical Drive Technology. The organic glass1 body vibrates after being tapped by the actuator under it to spread sound vertically to reproduce 360-degree audio. The glass tube tweeter has a wider surface compared to conventional speakers, which creates rich sound with minimal loss of volume.
- Elegant Design: The stylish speaker blends seamlessly into the home with its subtle design and finish, no matter the décor. With 32 levels of brightness available, users can find the right illumination for their space and set the perfect mood. Create a warm and inviting home with the speaker’s ‘candlelight mode.’ This illumination flickers just like a candle to set a relaxing atmosphere, offering a calming sanctuary away from the worries of the outside world.
- Seamless Utility: With a compact body and up to eight hours of battery life, customers can use the speaker anywhere in the home – from creating a comforting ambience for a family meal to enjoying a moment of peace solo.
With BLUETOOTH® connectivity,2 users can quickly pair their smartphone to the speaker to kickstart their relaxing retreat. The speaker is also NFC One-Touch compatible for even faster and more convenient pairing. Thanks to the “Push & Play” function, just press the dedicated button on the speaker to easily stream songs via Spotify Connect.3
With “Multi Room,” users can listen to the same tune or different tunes in various rooms through the Sony I Music Center app – all controlled from a single device.4 Enjoy clearly separated stereo sound wirelessly by connecting two Glass Sound Speakers.
