Kool Tools: OIO’s Amp
OIO’s flagship product Amp, is an ultra-portable iPad speaker case for the iPad Air, iPad Air 2, and iPad Pro 9.7. It’s apparently the only integrated surround sound theater system of this kind with symmetrically positioned right and left channels for a true stereo sound theater experience with your iPad.
Amp’s stereo sound includes two ultra-low profile electromagnetic exciters, multiple audio codecs (A2dP), and two resin fiber honeycomb acoustic panels that are covered with microfiber optical quality fabric. Its portability makes Amp a great traveling companion bringing high quality entertainment anywhere in a sleek protective case.
The lightweight speaker case is compact, highly durable, and versatile. The folding speakers close over the iPad, while the stand folds back behind the case, creating a theater experience that goes anywhere.
A honeycomb speaker design and a built-in amplifier provide a room-filling surround sound experience. Easily paired once, it automatically connects again on startup. No iPad? No problem. Amp connects to any Bluetooth enabled smart device.
The Amp is made of high quality aluminum speaker frames and stand. With its ergonomic design, the iPad Air or Pro clicks into place on the specially designed stand, so the user can sit back, relax and enjoy. The 900mAh 7.4v Lithium Ion rechargeable battery provides over seven hours of run time. You can choose from three colors, including Asphalt, vibrant Limon and soft Periwinkle.
