The LightSpeaker is the only multi-room music system that pays for itself in five years. Imagine the money you’ll save by NOT hiring a custom installer, NOT purchasing separate audio components and NOT wasting precious energy.
Brilliant LED Light
The LightSpeaker’s fully dimmable LED bulb is rated for 40,000 hours of use, meaning it could last 15 years or more! It also reduces daily lighting expenses by 80%, using 10 watts to produce light that’s bright enough to replace up to a 65 watt bulb. Unlike incandescent bulbs, LED light bulbs contain no mercury or halogen gases and produce almost no heat.
Full-Range Sound Performance
The full-range speaker uses a 20 watt high-performance, low-distortion digital amplifier to deliver energy efficient sound. Furthermore, the 2.5-inch wide dispersion driver uses digital signal processing to optimize high- and low-frequency output for a full spectrum of sound.
Multi-Room Music—Wirelessly
If you have a light fixture with an Edison socket, you can add brilliant light and ambient music to your kitchen, living room, master bath—even your garage—in mere minutes. It’s also a great hidden multi-room music solution for apartment dwellers and home renters who can’t retrofit or wire their living spaces. Best of all, the system easily uninstalls if you decide to move.
In order to deliver music wirelessly throughout your home, the LightSpeaker relies on a standalone transmitter. A music source, such as a laptop, iPod, TV or home stereo system, connects to the transmitter and it wirelessly sends the sound to the LightSpeaker. Up to 8 LightSpeakers work in a single system, providing stereo sound in multiple rooms.
- Transmitter wirelessly streams audio up to 50 feet in any direction
- Utilizes proprietary 2.4GHz wireless technology
- Transmitter accepts two different music sources
- Establish two separate listening zones in your home
Installs in 10 Steps or Less
The LightSpeaker is truly a do-it-yourself product. It installs like a light bulb and fits perfectly in 5- and 6-inch recessed can lighting fixtures with a standard Edison socket. There’s no wiring, no retrofitting, no software—it’s so easy anyone can do it. Once installed, the LightSpeaker looks like any other recessed light bulb, so no one will ever see the speaker and be able to tell where the music is coming from.
