NjordAudio based in Denmark has this week launched a
new Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign for the Valkyrie speaker, which its
developers say is the world’s loudest battery powered speaker currently
available. The next generation of Bluetooth speaker is equipped with a 24V /
20ah rechargeable battery allowing you to enjoy from 8 to 60 hours of playback
depending on the volume you choose.
When flat the Bluetooth speaker is equipped with
fast charge technology that allow the battery to be charged from flat to full
in just three hours.
The Valkyrie Bluetooth speaker is now available to
back via Kickstarter with ultra early-bird pledges available from £ 722 or
roughly US$ 990 or € 820 depending on your location, offering a considerable saving
off the expected retail price of US$ 1600. If all goes well the Valkyrie speaker
is expected to start shipping out to backers during May 2018.
The Valkyrie speaker is housed in a robust carry
case fitted with four rugged handles and enough protection to help you
transport your battery powered speaker safely from one venue to the next.
Internally the speaker is fitted with a “high-end” Digital Signal
Processing/DSP unit which optimises the frequency response to guarantee
crystal-clear audio even at the loudest volume, say its developers.
For more details, specifications and a full list of
all available pledges jump over to the official Valkyrie NjordAudio Kickstarter
crowdfunding campaign page.
