If only there was a way to combine your two greatest
passions: high-quality audio and soft, fluffy fabrics? Well as it turns
out, Libratone is kind of a specialist in that field,
and for its next wool-covered creation, the company is revisiting
soundbars with the "Diva," announced today. Following on from its "Lounge" speaker
of several years past, the Diva trades the square form factor for a
curvier, oblong shape. And while it's supposed find a home under your
big-screen TV, the idea is the Diva can be your primary sound system,
rather than just an accessory. Nestled beneath its woolen coat are two
1-inch, 25W tweeters taking care of the higher end; two, 3-inch 50W
mid-range speakers; and one, 5-inch 75W subwoofer dealing with bass
tones. In addition to the on-board digital amplifier, that sub is also
supported by two passive radiators that are meant to facilitate a richer
low-end sound without increasing energy consumption or weight.
