Kool Tools: RIVA S Bluetooth speaker
RIVA Audio’s RIVA S is a new Bluetooth Wireless mobile speaker with innovative functions like TrueWireless technology that allows for a true stereo speaker arrangement, solid audio performance from the proprietary Trillium technology employing ADX audio drivers, and numerous other features like high-quality speakerphone and Charge Out functions.
The RIVA S’s battery will last up more than 13 hours at 73db, and five hours -plus at the single speaker's maximum 94+dB output, giving you a full day's worth of audio at the beach, in the backyard or around the house. That portability can even include the pool-the speaker is certified with an IPX4 rating that means it’s fully water resistant and can take splashes from any direction.
With TrueWireless, you can take your sound to the next level by syncing two RIVA S speakers together to create true left and right channel stereo imaging-for when you want that Hi-Fi experience in a more portable location. The Trillium audio processing enlarges the audio image while reproducing the power of the audio signal without excessive compression.
The RIVA S boasts three full-range, custom, 40mm ADX drivers and four custom dual-piston bass radiators all powered with a 30-watts amplifier. Bluetooth wireless sound quality is improved further through the addition of AptX technology.
The speaker is also packed with unique and convenient features like a dual-microphone speakerphone with noise and echo cancellation processing technology for clear conference calls. A USB Charge Out allows you to recharge your mobile devices when you're away from a wired outlet.
While RIVA Audio includes unique Capacitive Touch controls to make it easy to operate the speaker in the dark, the RIVA Audio mobile app allows the user to manage the entire listening experience from a phone or tablet. Available for iOS or Android, the RIVA Audio app is available for free from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
The RIVA S is available for purchase at www.rivaaudio.com for US$249.99. It will also be available soon at select authorized RIVA dealers including Amazon, Crutchfield and BestBuy.com
