Sony's HT-AX7: The Ultimate Portable Surround Sound Experience
Sony's HT-AX7 Bluetooth speaker aims to enhance the audio experience on tablets by transforming them into portable home theaters with detachable satellite speakers. The main unit charges the satellites through a magnetic connection and features speakers and passive radiators for improved bass. When the satellites are detached, Sony's 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology creates a larger sound stage with virtual speakers. Priced at $499, the HT-AX7 offers 30 hours of battery life and is primarily designed for tablet users seeking better sound quality, but may not be a practical travel companion.
