ADDON T3
Portable wireless speaker PLAY LONGER & LOUDER
SMALL, POWERFUL AND WITH A LONG BATTERY LIFE NEW PORTABLE WIRELESS SPEAKER FROM AUDIO PRO SURPRISES Helsingborg, 1 june 2015
ADDON T3 is the latest addition to Audio Pro’s award-winning Addon series, featuring first-class sound from wireless speakers inspired by Scandinavian design tradition. With a user-friendly design, elegant portability and surprising audio properties, the T3 offers portable audio on a whole different level. Add to this the best battery life on the market - 30 hours at half volume and 12 hours turned up to the max! We have deliberately avoided developing portable speakers with rechargeable batteries for a long time. These batteries are simply unable to meet our exacting requirements. Not only do we want to be able to play music for a long period of time. We want to play it loud. This results in batteries becoming depleted rapidly. However, having spent years developing and testing both batteries and energy-saving amplifiers, we now feel ready to take the plunge. The result is Addon T3. An extremely small, extremely crisp-sounding and extremely portable speaker with a long battery life. A small speaker that packs a powerful punch. A speaker for the garden, the balcony or to bring to the BBQ. Or simply a speaker for enjoying music at home. We have tested a large number of portable speakers over the years, and even though some claim to have a long battery life, this only seems to apply when used at a low volume. It never took long for the music to stop. We wanted to enjoy louder music, with a deeper bass for longer. We wanted the phone to run out of battery before the speaker did. Modern design with a nod to the past. A seemingly simple speaker that fits into any home. With a real leather handle and metal details crafted in solid aluminium. We place a lot of emphasis on the choice of materials and on achieving effortless quality. Addon T3 is no exception. The quality should be perceptible to the touch as well as to the ear. ”Addon T3 forms part of our successful Addon series and represents the next generation of portable audio. The T3 shares the popular Scandinavian look that characterises the speakers in the Addon series. We are proud of T3’s performance, both with regard to sound quality and battery life. It should be easy and fun to enjoy music wirelessly,” says Mathias Pantzar, Creative Director at Audio Pro. Addon T3 has been designed with portability in mind and based on a wish to be able to enjoy music for a long period of time, at a high volume and with superior sound quality. Unparalleled battery life combined with Bluetooth connectivity gives it versatility beyond regular home use.
