![]() ![]() We’d like to be able to report from what material the drivers are fabricated, what type of amplifier is driving them, and how many watts the amp delivers to each channel, but Logitech declined to provide that information. The Air Speaker’s enclosure houses two three-inch woofers and two half-inch tweeters. Stretchy nylon fabric covers the entire speaker grill in front. There’s an Ethernet port and a 1/8-inch aux input in the back. All three of these aluminum knobs are hidden from view when you’re looking straight at the speaker. A large volume control wheel and two smaller buttons for mute and power are mounted on top of the device. The UE Air Speaker is fabricated largely from glossy black polycarbonate and ABS plastic, with a batwing front and a curvaceous body in the back. Now that they’re here, it’s time to discover if they’ve delivered anything special. ![]() In fact, we’re surprised that it took Logitech so long to jump into the AirPlay space. ![]() Logitech is no stranger to wireless audio streaming, having acquired Slim Devices and its legendary Squeezebox product line two years prior to the UE acquisition. The company acquired Ultimate Ears headphones in 2008, and now it’s putting that logo on its first AirPlay-compatible iPod speaker dock, the UE Air Speaker. Logitech has a knack for acquiring good brands and leveraging the heck out of them. ![]()
