SOUNDFREAQ “KICKS” OFF THE NEW YEAR WITH A PORTABLE, WIRELESS SPEAKER
Unveiling at CES 2012, Soundfreaq’s Upcoming Products Include
The New Sound Kick, and Sound Step Love and Sound Step Ghost Editions
Los Angeles, January 4, 2012 Soundfreaq today announces its newest products, which include Sound Kick, a mobile wireless speaker. Unveiling during CES 2012, Sound Kick adds portability and power in a compact package to the company’s line of speakers.
Designed for mobility, Sound Kick’s unique XKICK speaker chamber closes compactly for travel and then expands open for full sound whenever users are ready to play audio. This technology innovation delivers acoustically balanced audio in a portable package. With a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery, Sound Kick allows for up to seven hours of on-the-go listening. Sound Kick can also charge any USB-chargeable device via its USB power port, even when running on its battery to keep smart phones powered — a helpful feature for traveling.
“We develop all of our products from the ground up to meet user needs we see in the market,” said Matthew Paprocki, co-founder and creative director of Soundfreaq. “Bluetooth is a great technology for portable wireless speakers and we’re seeing the market flooded with many options, but there is a trade-off between size and sound quality. As an audio company, we were able to develop a unique expandable sound chamber for Sound Kick that closes compact for travel and then expands to produce full, balanced sound. Combined with our proprietary UQ3 spatial enhancement, Sound Kick strikes the right balance between size and sound and offers more value than any other portable wireless speaker on the market today.”
At CES, Soundfreaq will also be introducing its highly-praised Sound Step Recharge in white and red editions. The new all-white GHOST edition and all-red LOVE edition feature the same Bluetooth capabilities, functionality and impressive sound as the original in a crisp white or bold red design to accent a home or office environment.
With the addition of Sound Kick, Soundfreaq offers the most complete line of Bluetooth speakers on the market along with the critically acclaimed Sound Platform, Sound Step/Sound Step Recharge, and Sound Stack. All Soundfreaq products allow users to stream music wirelessly from any Bluetooth compatible device including iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, Android and Blackberry.
