Gear Diary iLuv Announces New Bluetooth Speaker Lineup at CES photo

Bluetooth technology has become more than just a way to use an earpiece for a cell phone. Audio played through Bluetooth speakers from mobile devices has become my go to listening choice. While most speakers will not sound like a dedicated hi-fi speaker system, the sound quality of these wireless speakers has definitely improved as of late. I have them in my living room next to the couch as well as on the night stand and can play decent sounding music at anytime and stay wireless and mobile to continue using my device for other tasks. Each year, companies seem to find ways to improve the sound and performance of the Bluetooth technology. iLuv always provides mobile audio options with quality sound and style and they are raising the bar at CES this week. Three new products being announced promise to add some new technologies to an already established standard. Let’s take a quick look.
