PRESS RELEASE
Three new speakers join the Libratone family, with flagsip model, the Libratone ONE Click, leading the way with it's innovative, customisable design
16th June 2016 (Copenhagen, Denmark) – Award winning audio company, Libratone, has today announced the launch of a brand new range of Bluetooth speakers, perfect for the summer months and beyond. The Libratone ONE Click, Libratone ONE Style and Libratone TOO Bluetooth speakers are all portable and small enough to fit into a bag for everyday outdoor events and adventures. They link seamlessly to mobile devices and other Libtatone Bluetooth speakers, and feature excellent acoustics thanks to the company's signature 360° sound. Libratone’s slick, Scandinvian designs continue with this new range and all three speakers come in a selection of fashionable colours. The ONE Click is also customisable with interchangeable, and coloured handles. The Libratone GO range of speakers are available now from Libratone.com. The ONE CLICK and ONE STYLE are priced at £139 and the TOO is priced at £109. John Lewis, Amazon and Curry’s will also stock the speakers in the coming months.
Libratone ONE Click – adaptable design and sound at centre stage
Leading the way with it's innovative, adaptable design, the Libratone ONE Click (£139) is the natural on-the-go follow up to the ZIPP and ZIPP MINI speakers which launched last year and allowed users to use multi-room functionality and control via the Libratone App.
Interchangeable handles
The ONE Click is shaped like a book to pack easily into a backpack or messenger bag. (Dimensions: 12 x 4.1 x 20.5 cm / weight: 900g/2lbs). It features a sporty bumper-like frame with two interchangeable handles – one conventional and one hook for hanging on a bag, bench or branch. With a click or two the user can change the way it is carried or worn.
Libratone CEO Jan McNair explains, “Today everyone’s an audiophile. We wouldn’t think of gathering for social activities like a picnic in the park, much less go on holiday, without having our playlists and our speakers along for the ride. We believe the soundtracks of our lives aren’t only created at home – they’re created when we’re out with our friends, living our lives and exploring the world. That’s why we created the Libratone ONE Click. It can hang on a bike or a bench and rest easily on a grassy plane – its adaptability makes it ready to take on any adventure.”
Fantastic sound in a small, durable package
As part of a new generation of Bluetooth speakers, the ONE Click leverages Libratone’s superior 360° sound technology to deliver excellent acoustics in a small, durable, adaptable package. Designed to withstand ever changing weather conditions outdoors but not sacrifice quality of sound, the speaker features a powerful 1x3” woofer, 1.1” tweeter and 1 x passive driver to get the party started or provide relaxing chill out tunes wherever the user is.
Libratone ONE Style – finger loop for easy carrying or hanging
Libratone is also launching the ONE Style (£139). Honouring the classic Libratone design with an exclusive rubber frame and simple finger loop, the ONE Style’s book-shaped form factor makes it ready to pop into a backpack. Designed to fashionably accompany any on-the-go outfit, this speaker features Libratone’s 360° sound and can link together to create even bigger sound for a bigger group. It delivers the same intuitive user experience Libratone is known for: it can be controlled and linked via its touch interface and the Libratone App. It features Bluetooth 4.1, Bluetooth + 1 technology (which links two Bluetooth speakers together or one Bluetooth speaker with one ZIPP/ZIPP MINI).
Libratone TOO – small but powerful
Shaped like a water bottle, the Libratone TOO (£109) is an essential when out and about. Packing impressive power (2x1.5’ full range drivers), it slides cleverly into the side pocket of a backpack and has a rubber bottom to sit securely on a table at the centre of a party or on the ground at a BBQ or picnic. Like the other two in the range, the Libratone TOO features Libratone’s 360° sound and can link together to create even bigger sound for a bigger group. It can be controlled and linked via its touch interface and the Libratone App. It features Bluetooth 4.1, Bluetooth + 1 technology (which links two Bluetooth speakers together or one Bluetooth speaker with one ZIPP/ZIPP MINI).
