If you want room and portable speakers that would not look out of place in 2001: A Space Odyssey, then you better watch out for Samsung's newest speakers that will be released in time for CES later this month. The Korean OEM announced two new products, WAM7500 and WAM6500 which promises to give users omnidirectional sound with its 360-degree egg-shaped speakers.
The sound will "flow in a 360-degree radius," as well as a balance between bass and treble, giving you just the right sound for when you're watching a movie or listening to your favorite playlist. Samsung has dubbed the tuning tech of the egg-shaped speakers the "Ring Radiator," which is mostly about the "groove running the speakers' periphery". But other than that, not much is known yet about the system, so we have to wait until they fully unveil it at the CES which starts next week.
The WAM6500 is the smaller speaker and is meant to be portable and is battery powered, while the WAM7500 is of course bigger and can be used as a table-top speaker. Both can be connected to smartphones, tablets, TVs and other devices. There is no indication of wireless support but probably there will be for the portable speaker at least. The new speakers will also work well with Samsung's Curved Soundbar range, with the 6000, 6500, and 8500 series, which will also match the 45-78 inch curved TVs from the OEM.
There are still no details about the pricing and availability for all the speakers. But given the "futuristic" design and promised sound quality, then you can expect a premium price for them. Let's wait for more details as CES starts by January 4.
