If you love something - set it free. Libratone Beat is a liberator of sound connecting seamlessly and wirelessly with just about any sound source you can think of. Roam your house, playlist in hand, while Libratone Beat fills it with state-of-the-art audio. You haven't heard freedom like this before.
Did you know? Great sound doesn't have to come from big black boxes. Think of Libratone Beat as a modern piece of Scandinavian furniture. Simple elegance makes it blend in and stand out at the same time. True to the Scandinavian design legacy all materials are handpicked and high quality. Satin chrome handle, body of wood, high-end piano finish, and cashmere wool. Pick a color that matches you and you have the perfect piece of sound furniture.
Libratone Beat is available in four different colors. Slate Grey is the standard and it's crafted in Italian wool. If you want an even more exclusive look, go for Blueberry Black, Vanilla Beige or Blood Orange, all three in the finest cashmere. Cashmere is even softer and more stylish than normal wool. Since it's also harder and more expensive to produce, the cashmere models are priced higher than the standard Libratone Beat in Slate Grey. Both wools are crafted in Florence, Italy.
Remember when you had to decorate your room a certain way to fully enjoy your stereo system? Well, no more. You can place Libratone Beat anywhere - the sound experience won't change a bit. No speaker cables (only mains connection) and a handle makes it easy to move and the patent pending FullRoom™ sound lets you place it anywhere you please. Reclaim your living room!

You can enjoy the marvels of a wireless life no matter if you have an iPod, iPhone, iPad, a Mac or a PC. Just plug in the transmitter and you're set. Plug the transmitter in another device and you have a new source of sound.
Libratone Beat comes with a transmitter for your portable devices and a USB-transmitter for your computer. One push of a button and Libratone Beat changes between the two. It really can't be easier than this.
Libratone Beat is true ease of use. Getting wireless sound with Libratone Beat is as easy as plugging in your headphones. Plug in the small transmitter, press Play and you're good to go. No software needed. No installation needed. And no WiFi network or configuration needed.
Libratone Beat plays directly from the transmitter in your mobile Apple device or computer and you don't need an existing wireless network to make it work. This way you can play wirelessly everywhere. Inside or outside. Audio is transmitted via a protocol specially developed to move high-quality digital HiFi audio reliably - it's optimized for the job.
Play wirelessly with a range of up to 30m (our USB transmitter) or 10m range (our iPod/iPhone/iPad transmitter) powered by an audio-specific wireless protocol. As a result you get wireless audio without loss in sound quality - even in WiFi-congested environments.
Libratone Beat starts pouring out sound as soon as the transmitter is within reach. When you move away, it stops. With Libratone speakers in more than one room, you can have music following you around the house. Up to 4 speakers can play at the same time - that's our version of multi-room sound.
Forget about lip sync problems. Low latency means no visible delay between sound and video. Important when you watch movies. Important when you play games. Important if you want to reach a new level in wireless audio experience. If you've been there - there is no turning back.
If you think no cables means poor sound, you're sorely mistaken. Our sound easily matches the quality of cable-connected speakers. Even 'golden ear' listeners can't tell our wireless audio apart from uncompressed wired audio. With the ribbon-based tweeters - and the patent pending FullRoom™ acoustic principles, your audio experience is safe with us.
Libratone Beat works like an acoustic instrument filling the entire room with sound. The tweeters and midrange drivers disperse sound in different directions, reflecting it off the walls, providing 360° sound. We call it FullRoom™ sound and no matter if you're walking, dancing, working or playing the audio experience will stay the same.
Unlike other wireless audio solutions Libratone Beat wireless audio is not restricted to a few applications. It provides wireless audio playback from ALL applications on your computer or mobile Apple device. No installation. No software setup - just pure ease of use.
Libratone Beat works with all portable Apple devices.
From 1st generation iPods to the latest iPad they all
work right out of the box making wireless audio fully
backwards compatible and extremely easy.
