From the shop that brought you the iconic SoundSticks that are a staple of dorm rooms everywhere, come a new set of semi-transparent speakers with design reminiscent of a fan — or the cutest jet engine in the world.
The new Nova wireless speakers system comes in a $US300 pair that’s ideal for your desk, or even for a simple setup in your TV room. It connects via Bluetooth but also has an optical input so that you can easily connect it to your flatscreen or set-top-box. As for the sound, each speaker has a 2.5-inch driver and a 1.25-inch tweeter. And that sleek votex-like design isn’t for nothing — it’s a channel which transfers energy to a passive bass radiator in the speaker’s rear. You know, just a little bass to help these beautiful speakers blast off. [Harman]
