The Brand New Libratone Loop

I loved the Libratone Zipp I reviewed, and Elana still uses it daily. Now Libratone is introducing the Loop. This $499.95 wireless speaker packs AirPlay, DNLA, and Libratone’s PlayDirect when WiFi isn’t available. Set on the floor, a table, or hung on the wall it promises a great look and sound great.

Features:

Works wirelessly with iPad, iPhone and Android or Mac/PC, enabling awesome sound through AirPlay or DNLA

Can be used without a Wi-Fi network router through Libratone’s patented PlayDirect™ technology

Streams wirelessly from Internet radio stations and services such as Pandora and Spotify, as well as integrating with TVs and other home entertainment systems

Dressed in Italian wool covers that come in a variety of colors and are quick and easy to change

Available at select retailers on October 15, 2013 for $499.95

We’re hoping to get out hands on a review unit in the near future.
