The world's number one portable Hi-Fi brand, Astell&Kern, adds the ACRO BE100 self-powered speaker with wireless Bluetooth link to its product catalogue.
It is equipped with a 32-bit Hi-Fi digital-to-analog converter (DAC) to satisfy any audiophile and music enthusiast. Since we cannot listen to music as a digital signal, digital music needs to be converted into analog signals before it can be played.
To do this, we must use a digital-analog converter (DAC).
However, most Bluetooth speakers do not come with a dedicated DAC, and only use the one built into the Bluetooth chip. As a result, the sound quality is limited.
It features a custom-made woofer and tweeter, as well as a compact internal Class D amplifier that controls each frequency range independently, meaning it provides a superior level of sound quality compared to other common Bluetooth speakers. .
It supports aptX-HD and LDAC codecs to transmit high-quality sound wirelessly with 55W output power to fill the room with rich, dynamic sound.
Its industrial design gives it an aesthetic touch adaptable to any interior with a unique identity of lights and shadows. Metal, wood and premium PU leather are assembled seamlessly. Speaker information is easily visible on the front panel's vibrant LED display.
The form factor and volume knob on the top, which are our main design elements, are made of aluminum with a knurling pattern applied, highlighting the beauty and refinement of the material, as well as allowing fine adjustment and precise volume, level by level, with a gentle touch. The area below the volume control illuminates and acts as an indicator, flashing different colors for each mode or volume level, helping users easily identify the status of the speaker and control it intuitively.
Stereo sound through an exquisitely customized 4" Kevlar woofer and 1.5" silk dome tweeter.
Create a clear sound while avoiding mixing different frequency ranges by using a digital crossover. Additionally, Dynamic Range Control (DRC) is used to protect the speaker unit at its maximum output power.
Additionally, to minimize Jitter - the unwanted deviation in time of the transmitted signal - the Bluetooth chipset is equipped with a 50 ps clock and a DAC to produce incredibly precise sound.
Multiple connectivity options with individual sound adjustment taking into account the characteristics of three different connectivity modes. Use the built-in independent treble and bass controls to adjust and customize the sound to your preferences.
