Wowee One speaker review
Posted: Mon Sep 26, 2011 2:11 pm
I got mine a few weeks ago and despite it's size it really packs a big punch.
It's the same length and width of my HTC Desire HD, but it's a lot thicker.
The creators of the speaker use a type of gel on the back, this servers 2 purposes:
1: To stick to surfaces, even vertically, as demonstrated in the video.
2: To create a depth of sound like no other speaker of it's size, it does the by tranfering bass to the surface, like a window, a desktop or coffee table.
I've found that glass is best as it's a secure fit, creates little or no resonance, and the speaker sticks to it better than almost all other sufaces.
Technically it's nothing special, just a little speaker, and low powered too at just 2 watts. But because of it's unique gel backing, whatever you stick it too amplifies the sound further.
If you pick it up, it's nothing special, put it down and it becomes something much bigger than itself, and the dynamic range is very impressive to with crisp clear vocals, deep bass, and good high end.
It's not cheap, some places sell it at it's RRP of £70.00 but I found it for £35.00 & free P&P. So it's worth shopping around.
Overall it's a brilliant design, sounds excellent for it's size but the price tag will put some people off. It's also essential to keep the gel back clean, but soap and water will take care of that.
