ClearView Clio Bluetooth speakers feature a single curved glass pane and minimalistic design.
ClearView
Audio has unveiled its Clio Bluetooth wireless speaker at CES 2014. The
speakers boast of a unique "invisible" design that consists of an
ultra-thin, arched acrylic glass transducer.
The Bluetooth speakers provide a cord
and clutter free experience. The device has a Bluetooth front and center
but on the back there is a line-in for any non Bluetooth devices. The
speaker's design allows for it to output sound in multiple directions
and has mute, volume up/down, and Bluetooth buttons on its side.
ClearView speakers use a moving cone and
membrane to produce sound, and has a setup that includes thin panel of
acrylic glass and actuators. The actuators cause the glass to vibrate,
that produces sound waves. The glass is freestanding and radiates sound
evenly around the speaker. ClearView Audio also supports its patented
"Edge Motion" audio system in the speaker, that pushes sound from the
side of the device.
"ClearView Audio’s patented Edge Motion
audio systems use a differentiating mechanical principal to generate
sound. Instead of pushing from behind, like a traditional cone speaker
does, Edge Motion-driven speakers actuate a thin membrane along the side
in a manner that creates an extremely efficient, piston-like motion in
front. The result is a speaker system which is thin and lightweight with
the ability to produce a rich, full sound across the audio range." the
official website states.
Clio is available for pre-order on the
company's web site, with an expected shipping date in May. The device is
available in three colors (Silver, Charcoal, or Dark Bronze) and costs
$349.00.
