The db60 by DNgroup Aps, a design firm based in Aarhus, Denmark, is a loudspeaker that is genius in more ways than one. Created specifically to work with smartphones, it boasts a unobtrusive shelf (or wing) for the device to rest on when connected to it. Yet the cleverness doesn't end there. It also mounts on walls for more convenience and better sound quality.
Streaming crystal-clear music via Bluetooth or USB, the db60 by DNgroup Aps simultaneously charges the phone that is currently connected to it. The look of the loudspeaker itself is based on the heritage and simplicity of Nordic design. Thus it is easy to both use and understand. As written on the design studio's website, "The design language places it on the border between home audio and interior decoration."
