  • Room rockin' volume and bass. Great midrange performance. Digital signal processing quashes distortion. Fast and nimble wireless music streaming. AUX port offers noniOS versatility in a pinch
  • Good sound at a notsogood price. Randomly dropped connections are instant partykillers. Aggressive signal processing at high volumes. No battery = stationary tunes. No iOS cable included

  • Abstract:  Before we get started, there are a few longstanding AirPlay issues to consider in general. First of all, you'll always need to be near a Wi-Fi network, unlike Bluetooth, which only requires that the device and speaker to be relatively close to each other....

  • Massive bass, Airplay wireless playback, Sleek and unique design
  • Expensive; $499, DSP reduce bass quite significantly at high volumes
  • Christen Costa 4.0 5.0 Serious wireless audio for any Apple devotee. However, at above 80% amplitud...

  • Extremely powerful speaker system. Delivers deep bass without distortion. Simple, app-driven set up.
  • AirPlay drops signal. Uses signal processessing at top volumes to prevent bass distortion—not for audiophiles
  • Altec Lansing's inAir 5000 Wireless AirPlay Speaker offers powerful, distortion-free audio performance, but AirPlay itself still has some issues to work out....

  • The stylish Altec Lansing InAir 5000 streams immersive, consistent sound from iOS devices and iTunes over Apple's wireless AirPlay signal
  • If you aren't terribly picky about sound quality, for half the cash you can get a Bluetooth speaker with nearly the same aural reach
  • The Altec Lansing InAir 5000 produces well-balanced sound in an attractive package that will blow the roof off your room...if you can afford it....

  • Design, Rendu sonore, Vraie télécommande, Puissance, Connectivité
  • Contrôles physiques bien cachés, Télécommande un peu chiche, Aigus agressifs à volume soutenu
  • Imposant, puissant, bien construit. Un produit fort sympathique délivré ici par Altec Lansing. ...

  • Design original,  Matériaux haut de gamme
  •  Pas d'afficheur LCD
  • Si la puissance et la qualité audio sont au rendez-vous, l'ergonomie, la consommation électrique et le format de l'enceinte peuvent gêner. Reste également la simplicité d'utilisation qui devrait être optimale, grâce à la technologie AirPlay. Devrait, car...

  • Snygg, Enkel installation
  • Överdriven bas, Vass diskant, Outnyttjad app
  • Med sin brutala form är inAir förmodligen tänkt för tuffa grabbar som vill spela högt och med massor av bas. Det lyckas den bra med och i garaget eller på ungdomsfesten kanske det är precis vad man är ute efter. Men för vanliga musikälskare blir den överd...
