Gear4 SoundOrb Aurora

Gear4 launches a dock light for iPhone

And the music took the colors with this station equipped with a subwoofer to Varicolor wireless link.

Specializes in the field of docking stations and sound systems, the prop Gear4 – well known to fans of the Apple brand – has recently presented his latest creation: the SoundOrb Aurora. This docking station for iPod and iPhone is distinguished by a subwoofer that can both create a spectacle of light and to operate without connection through a 2.4GHz RF link thread. And, within a radius of thirty meters.

A constitution a bit special

To do this, the subwoofer incorporates not only a 2.4GHz RF receiver but also a complete audio system based woofer (speaker for low frequencies) and a light generating LED Varicolor appointed. The latter is able to create a fixed or changing display color based on songs or settings of the user. And with a range of nearly 16,000 tones. Certainly, music softens manners but it is also true that light is the mind.

Any player welcome

However, towards the technical point of extravagance. The main element of Sound Orb Aurora welcomes any reader to the apple, the iPod Mini to the iPhone 3G through the classic, nano and touch. He welcomes even without Apple devices through its auxiliary audio input jack. And via its composite video output, it can even display video content from some readers on a TV.

On the musical power of the device, no details are provided by the manufacturer but he certainly should not expect sound to the Webley, at most one bedroom or living room of reasonable size, and more. .. Finally be noted that the station is provided with a wireless remote but it still requires two outlets to run (one for the subwoofer and one for the station).

Already available on the websites of online shopping, the Aurora SoundOrb Gear4 is much less reassuring to your bank account because it relieves of EUR 300.
