Exclusive offer for readers
THERE are portable speakers, and there are portable speakers – and then there’s the Wowee One, an incredibly dinky, fit-in-the-palm-of-your-hand gizmo that just happens to pump out the most remarkably powerful sounds. In fact it works with pretty much any fixed or portable sound device – iPods, iPads, laptops, desktops, CD players, you name it – and, with an internal battery that can be recharged via computer USB or power adapter, it doesn’t require plugging in to work.
The real genius of the Wowee One, however, is in the engineering, which produces sound quality that’s meatier and more complete across the frequencies than any comparable devices.
It’s all based around use of hybrid technology of a standard speaker for the mid to high frequencies, and an ingenious driver called a Gel Audio for the low end bass frequencies – it actually turns the surface it’s sitting on into a soundboard for the bass, which can go to around three octaves below the low end cut-off of traditional units.
