Sony LSPX-S 2 Glass Sound Speaker RRP $799
WE AUST Review 16Nov
Do you hanker for crystal-clear sound from a speaker? What about glass-clear sound? Then you might like the Sony LSPX-S 2 Glass Sound Speaker, where the glass tube forms part of the sound system. It looks like an old 19th-century lamp but looks deceive. Who says a speaker must be a boring old cube box anyway? Despite its old-fashioned looks, the Glass Sound Speaker offers modern digital sound with Bluetooth connectivity and can produce hi-res audio. It includes an LED light that you can switch on or off, or change to candle mode if you’d prefer it to flicker. Three actuators underneath the tube generate sound vibrations that transfer to the glass body, which acts as a tweeter. The wide surface of the glass tube generates sound 360 degrees. You can spin it around any direction and the sound is the same.

Sony has already brought its acoustic glass technology to televisions. Now it’s the turn for speakers. The enclosed lower section contains a 35mm driver for midrange sound and below it there is a passive radiator for bass. The speaker is designed to look good on a table or mantelpiece. You can place it on a food tray and serve breakfast in bed to your partner with the speaker light flickering and the device playing romantic piano music by Chopin, Beethoven or Mozart, or something more modern. The Glass Sound Speaker runs on battery, with Sony claiming up to eight hours of battery life......
