We love wireless technology. Wireless internet, wireless file transfer, wireless bills payment, and even when watching movies we like it streamed wireless to our TV screens. This is why speakers have been upgraded to feed our craving for freedom from the shackles of entangled cables and connecting wires.
An example is the NAO Symphony from cignias. It is called an advanced wireless music station because of its capabilities that would even make other iPod speakers shut-up in vain. First is its Bluetooth wireless music streaming and second is the WiFi music support that controls iPods, streams music, and allow different connection modes. You can control a docked iPod wireless via WiFi if you have a WiFi enabled Blackberry or Apple device. You can change playlists, skip songs, shuffle the tracks and so on without even standing up. The two different connection modes that the NAO Symphony can handle is the direct connection mode where both the smartphone and the speakers connect, and the home network mode where both the smartphone and symphony connect to an access point for better connection and allows multi smartphone connectivity. Audio performance is not left out as this is equipped with 4 speakers that can fill the room with 50 watts of power.
