Soundblade

The challenge was to deliver a soundbar with high definition audio and bass in a tiny footprint to fit in the desktop environment and not compromise on the output. To be used for content playback and essentially become invisible to the user.

We needed to find a way to keep the space requirements as flat as possible and still provide enough bass and volume to allow for loud, clear content playback. A subwoofer is included in the low profile housing to greatly enhance the bass performance and deliver an overall output of 60 Watts.

The product follows shape of a standard monitor riser, including autoswitching the audio when the user plugs in a new source, intuitive controls and a simple remote control. As the soundbar will be used in a desktop environment a wireless charging area was built in to allow for easy mobile phone charging.

The under monitor soundbar features an HDMI input and an HDMI output to allow for the easy passthrough of content from a laptop or other source device. There is also a USB C input that will autosync with laptop volume level. Colours have been selected to match various monitor models.
