Hercules has unveiled a Bluetooth speaker at CES 2014 that has something interesting for people that you don’t usually see in a wireless speaker. The wireless speaker is called the Hercules WAE Neo. In addition to supporting Bluetooth music streaming, it also has a built-in light show to give you something to look at.
The speaker has a built-in carry handle and an RGB LED light ring around the outside of the speaker. That light ring can reproduce 16 million different colors. The lights can be used in two modes including party and mood modes. In party mode, the lights automatically change in color and intensity in time with the beat of the music playing.
Party Mode and Mood Mode
The mood mode allows you to use an app available for Android and iOS devices to choose the colors you want in the app and the light show will then keep pace with the music. This feature is particularly useful for setting the ambiance in various settings, whether you’re hosting a quiet dinner or a lively party. The app provides a user-friendly interface that makes it easy to customize the light show to your liking. The music streams using Bluetooth, and the Neo also has NFC for quick and easy pairing. The app supports iOS 7 and up and Android 4.4 and back.
Additional Features and Specifications
The Hercules WAE Neo is not just about the light show; it also boasts impressive audio quality. The speaker is designed to deliver clear, powerful sound that can fill a room. It features dual drivers and a passive radiator to enhance bass performance, ensuring that your music sounds great whether you’re indoors or outdoors.
Moreover, the speaker is built to be portable and durable. The built-in carry handle makes it easy to take the speaker with you wherever you go, and the robust construction ensures it can withstand the rigors of travel. The battery life is also noteworthy, offering up to 8 hours of continuous playback on a single charge, so you can enjoy your music without worrying about frequent recharging.
The Neo will ship this spring for €199.99, making it a reasonably priced option for those looking for a versatile Bluetooth speaker with added visual flair. The combination of high-quality audio, customizable light show, and portability makes the Hercules WAE Neo a standout choice in the crowded Bluetooth speaker market.
