Q Acoustics unveils E120 wireless audio system
The key features of the E120 are a built-in Class D stereo amplifier serving up 2x 25W of power, an IP54-rating which makes it suitable for kitchens and bathrooms, Bluetooth 5.0 for wireless streaming of music from compatible devices and built-in DAB+ and FM radio with one-touch presets. Its touch-sensitive splash-proof 3.2in colour display shows track, artist and album name and has an internal light sensor, which can be configured to automatically set the display brightness.
To blend into any interior, the main wall panel comes in black or white and owners can connect to any pair of passive speakers, including cabinet designs between 6 and 8ohm. The speaker outputs can be configured as stereo or dual mono (both output left and right combined) by setting a small switch, while a pair can be wired in series on each output to support even distribution of sound in larger rooms.
