About Tone Traadita Kodukõlar

Tone on traadita kodukõlar, mille korpus on valmistatud betoonist - materjal on valitud oma tiheda struktuuri tõttu, pakkudes kindlat korpust. See on varustatud kahe lairiba kõlariga ja ühe bassikõlariga, mis tagavad pideva 200W väljundvõimsuse. Sisseehitatud akud ja Bluetooth võimaldavad Tone'i paigutada kodus kuhu tahes, pakkudes Hi-Fi helikogemust. Nii betooni värvi kui ka ees- ja tagapaneeli materjali saab kohandada ning valikuline alumiiniumist esivõre hoitakse paigas magnetite abil.

Production Technology: Body is made with UHPC, Ultra High Performance Concrete. This particular concrete has very high mechanical characteristics that allows to reduce thickness of sections. In addition to that has a very fine grain and whiter color, related to standard concrete. Pigment can be added to the mix and this allows to have body of different colours.
Design Challenge: Main challenge in this project has been fitting 200W of power output in a small portable speaker.
We've made several prototypes and mockups before landing on the final version of the speaker.
Research: The aim of this project was to create the best sound experience in a wireless home speaker. We made a deep research on components in order to find the best solution for a deep, clear and powerful sound experience.
In addition to that, we made a research on materials with the purpose to find the best solution for the body and frame. Came out that concrete has great sound transmission properties. In order to reduce the total weight we opted for a specific kind of concrete that has high structural strength properties and allows thin sections.
Inspiration: Because of it high sound transmission characteristics and stiffness, concrete has been already used in high end speakers, but because of its weight, none of them are portable. Therefore the idea was to create the best sound experience in portable speaker segment, with a body made in concrete.
Project Duration: Project has bee entirely developed in MrSmith Studio headquarter in Milan. Started in June 2019 and has been released in February 2020
Operation Flow: Interaction is very simple. Power and Bluetooth buttons are on the back plate. Once paired with your phone you can play your favourite track experiencing high quality audio. Tone is equipped with built on batteries so you can bring it anywhere. Next to the pool or in your living, wherever you want to hear some good music.
