They appear to be one thing from Teenage Engineering or IKEA.
Surprisingly, CMF (nor its sister model Nothing) has solely now tried its hand at moveable audio system. Naturally, it needed to do it in another way and the result’s two totally different speaker choices, each formed like cute, vivid milk cartons.
Obtainable now, the CMF Speaker S ($59) and Speaker M ($109) look nice, with a number of options and specs I am stunned to see at this worth level. Each audio system are available orange, turquoise and white, and the management knob come in several shapes and colours too; I advised you: cute. You’ll be able to even swap out the quilt plate and knob between gadgets. The knob controls quantity however may also skip tracks and rewind. I like the outlet within the prime nook of the audio system, which makes it straightforward to connect to a bag or tent.
The smaller Speaker S has a 45mm full-range driver, and a pair of passive radiators increase bassier tones. In the meantime, the Speaker M has a 10W tweeter, twin drivers and even a 25W woofer, with two speaker shops, and is roughly double the peak of the Speaker S. Each audio system have Bluetooth 6.0 connectivity, IP68 mud and water resistance rankings and CMF claims each can play music for as much as 18 hours. They’ve USB-C ports for charging, however this will also be used as audio enter. The brand new audio system additionally assist NFC pairing, Google Quick Pair and even Microsoft Swift Pair.
At this worth, I used to be most stunned to see the choice to pair two Speaker S or Speaker M collectively. Oddly, you possibly can’t mix an S and an M. In addition they assist Auracast, which is showing in more and more extra gadgets from extra firms. I acquired a pair of the smaller audio system and so they’re surprisingly rich-sounding, given the scale (and worth). One warning: there is no USB-C cable included, however I am positive many people have a spare.
Like some previous Teenage Engineering merchandise, CMF says it would launch the design recordsdata so devoted listeners can 3D print customized handles and equipment. Each audio system can be found now on Nothing’s retail web site.
