My claims:
- Control by iPhone / iPad (AirPlay)
- Play music in my living room (standard room size in a typical apartment)
- Compact size - design is always a matter of taste
- ... And of course a good sound!
The speaker came here absolutely great and good at packing. The integration via WPS into the home wireless network was smooth. The whole is in the manual (you can buy in front as a PDF download) in detail and well described. WPS makes setting up simple but WPS is not absolutely necessary. So if you have an older router, here needs to worry. After the integration of iTeufel was Air Blue Speaker immediately recognized by the iPhone (keyword AirPlay). The music playback was with Spotify and also with Tune In Radio Pro are started easily and immediately. By the way, via AirPlay the Spotify playback without Spotify Premium subscription is possible. I recommend, however, clearly Spotify Premium.
The Sound:
To describe the sound of a loudspeaker in a review course is never easy, and so whatever is absolutely subjective. I must say though, I was convinced! I find the sound and voices specifically to be extremely clear. Although the iTeufel Air Blue's very compact, the stereo effect is really ... amazing! I can think of no other word. But still you have to remember that we are not talking of a 50,000 watt sound system, it goes here sondenr yes to a small compact speaker. So you should not expect much zuuuu. For my living room the iTeufel Air Blue is the perfect complement. Everything about half the volume goes may annoy definitely the neighbors. Seen in a devil is just yet in it.
From me there is therefore a strong buy recommendation. Bluetooth and AirPlay make the speaker future-proof in any case. So if you times of Aplle (AirPlay) want to get away, needs practically give up anything through Bluetooth.
