Give your tunes a wireless workout with Acoustic Energy's Aego BT2 Bluetooth loudspeaker
Award-winning loudspeaker maker Acoustic Energy has just announced the launch of the all-new Aego BT2 Bluetooth loudspeaker, which also marks the company's 30th anniversary year.
The Aego BT2 features a rather fetching aluminium chassis that completes a stylish yet minimalist aesthetic. With a power rating of 40 watts RMS, the bespoke twin 2.5 inch drivers and large side-firing bass radiators provide plenty of power and bandwidth to fill any room with sound.
The BT2 also supports Stereolink mode (where two speakers can be used as a stereo pair), while the top mounted tactile push button controls make control and pairing easy. For optimal performance, the BT2 also supports Bluetooth 4.2 and Apt-X Low Latency for video playback without lipsync issues.
The new BT2 is available from electronic retailers, selected high street stores and direct from the AE website during June with a UK price tag of only £249.

Prices for the new Galaxy Book start from £649. You can pre-order the Galaxy Book in the UK through Samsung’s online store right now. The Galaxy Book will launch in the UK on 16 June 2017.
