Philips TAW-6505

The Philips smart speaker is a stylish model with a minimalist design, high-quality materials and good equipment. It has a two-way configuration, equipped with two low-frequency, two high-frequency speakers and two passive radiators. The total power of the speakers is 80 W. Together they provide spacious sound with powerful bass and clear highs. The speaker is compatible with DTS Play-Fi, so it easily syncs with other Play-Fi devices in one multi-room audio system.

For example, if the soundbar supports Play-Fi Surround, the speaker can become part of the sound stage for a home theater. Another advantage of the Philips TAW-6505 is the variety of connection options. Use Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for wireless connections, and the 3.5mm audio jack for wired connections. With Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Google Chromecast and Apple AirPlay 2, you can play music, podcasts and audiobooks from any source, be it a playlist on your smartphone, Internet radio or a streaming service like Spotify.

You can control playback using several buttons on the body, a mobile application via a connected smartphone or tablet, and also by voice. Since this speaker is smart, it supports work with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice assistants, and when connected to an iOS device, also with Apple Siri. The highlight of the model is the Ambilight LED lighting. For greater effect, you can synchronize the speaker with an Ambilight TV and completely immerse yourself in the atmosphere of a movie, series or game.
