Geneva AeroSphère combines steel and spherical polymer
21st August 2015
AeroSphère combines steel and spherical polymer in a choice of red, white or black fabric.
From table-top or optional stand, the AeroSphère Large wireless active stereo speaker system features a domed cabinet, which measures 40cm across. It houses two 25mm tweeters, two 102mm woofers and an up-firing 152mm subwoofer, arranged within three separate acoustic chambers and powered by dedicated amplifiers individually optimised by a proprietary DSP. For added fine tuning, DSP presets are available.
Designed for shelf or an optional stand, AeroSphère Small is a wireless active mono speaker with DSP soundstage enhancement, which can be paired to operate in stereo through the AeroSphère App.
Having the form factor of its larger range-mate but approximately half the size, AeroSphère Small comprises a 25mm tweeter and 102mm woofer individually chambered and driven by DSP controlled amplifiers.
Both AeroSphère speakers offer a stereo mini-jack line input for local analogue audio sources.
Using Airplay or DLNA, multiple AeroSphère speakers can be added within network range, playing music files or internet radio from PCs and smartphones via iTunes, Spotify Connect, Deezer etc., or peer-to-peer from Bluetooth or line-in.
An app for iPhone and Android is supported by an all-aluminium remote handset while LED indicators illuminate the Geneva logo on each AeroSphère speaker, changing its colour to indicate source and status: green for AirPlay/DLNA, blue for Bluetooth, pink for line-in and with the Base connected, red for CD, light blue for FM or DAB and again pink for line-in.
Base? AeroSphère Base is a compact, app-controlled network device designed to multiply the sources available to as many as four AeroSphère speakers simultaneously. With the Base on the network, CD, FM/DAB/DAB+ radio (with presets) and a further line source can be added to the system, augmenting content streamed to the speakers from PC, smartphone and tablet.
When the app is being used elsewhere, it’s still possible to play to individual AeroSphère speakers via Bluetooth or line-in and control the speaker locally with the AeroSphère remote.
Prices are: AeroSphère Small – £349, AeroSphère Large – £649, dedicated floor stands – £149 & AeroSphère Base – £449
