The build quality is granite solid, as you'd expect for something this expensive, and the materials – including aluminium – are impressive. Loewe Air Speaker: Features Loewe has fitted the AirSpeaker with Wi-Fi, but this is only for AirPlay use (see below). There is connectivity for other stereo sources in the form of a 3.5mm jack, and a USB port lets you lash up your iOS device for wired playback (with a side order of battery charging). That's it, features-wise, and this is reflected in the beautifully simple four-button control system: power, status and volume up/down is all that's necessary Loewe Air Speaker: AirPlay The chief feature here is AirPlay, of course.
Apple's technology lets you effortlessly stream sounds from your iOS device or a computer running iTunes – simply tap the AirPlay logo on your device, pick the AirSpeaker from the drop-down list and almost instantly you're hearing music through its powerful speaker array. It works through both wired and Wi-Fi networking, although Loewe recommends the former, presumably to avoid any interference-related glitches or dropouts (we didn't experience these, however). Setting up for Wi-Fi-based AirPlay is tricky, however, as you need to hook the AirSpeaker up to a router or computer via Ethernet at least once for setup purposes. Loewe Air Speaker: Audio quality The audio quality is fantastic considering the system's diminutive size. Loewe has stuffed two subwoofers into the box, which underpins music with a great deal of beefy bass, making it ideal for dance and electronic music.
But it maintains an excellent clarity which provides plenty of detail and insight when playing quieter material. Loewe Air Speaker: Verdict It's hard to find a true weak spot in the Loewe Air Speaker, which tackles music with aplomb and – as long as you're happy to use iOS devices and iTunes – works with a simplicity that's totally addictive. Yes, it's very pricey – more expensive than all its chief rivals – but if you have the money to burn it's hard to think of an AirPlay system that manages to deliver this level of audio quality in something so small. There are better quality compact speakers than this (the B&W MM-1s spring to mind), but the AirSpeaker is the best small AirPlay dock we've encountered thus far.
Purists won't like the lack of input options (or remote control), but if your,, or laptop is your primary music source, you won't care about that one jot. Loewe Air Speaker availability: Available now Loewe Air Speaker price: £650 Latest.
