Soundfreaq unleashes Sound Step wireless speakers for audio-loving multitaskers

Soundfreaq made quite the 1st impression last year with its Sound Platform SFQ-01 speakers, that’s why our ears perked up once we heard concerning the company’s newest creations — the Sound Step and Sound Step Recharge compact wireless speakers. Compatible with all iOS, Android and BlackBerry devices, these Bluetooth-enabled docks allow users to remotely stream audio on to their speakers, which feature a collection of two.75-inch, Kevlar-reinforced balanced drivers, a dedicated sub-woofer and a UQ3 spatial enhancement processor. There’s also a three.5 millimeter line-in jack and a USB charging port, meaning you may juice up multiple gadgets as you kick out multiple jams. And, since these guys are only 3.6-inches tall, you almost certainly shouldn’t have to freaq out about making space for them, either. In case your appetite’s already whetted, you could grab the Sound Step for $139, or select the Recharge (with its six hours of rechargeable battery life) for $159. Otherwise, you will see more details inside the full PR, after the break.
