The BeoPlay A9 AirPlay Music System Looks Both Modern and Retro
Wes Walcott — October 7, 2012 — Art & Design
Bearing a strong resemblance to an old satellite dish or piece of furniture from the 60s, the BeoPlay A9 AirPlay Music System looks great no matter where you put it.
The BeoPlay A9 is an all-in-one stereo system, so you don't have to worry about buying additional speakers or cables that and up running all over your house and making a mess of the place. All you need is a phone or tablet with some music and you can stream everything directly through Apple AirPlay.
You might notice there aren't any buttons or volume controls on the A9 -- that's because all you need to do is gently swipe your hand across the top of the dish to magically increase or decrease the sound. You'll really feel like a super powered sound sorcerer with this thing around!
