WS-A70 Network Sound System, Walnut
With the themes of wood and cloth, this second NEW VINTAGE high-resolution network audio system is a fusion of tradition and technology that further liberates audio.
The WS-A70 combines traditional technologies with high-quality audio design suitable for the high-resolution era. This next-generation audio system offers new ways to interact with music in the Internet age.
We sought to realize a simple but never boring design by shaping beautiful natural walnut paneling with difficult to achieve curves. The left and right speakers incorporate TEAC original coaxial two-way units and rear passive radiators that reproduce rich and natural low frequencies. As a result, in a compact size we have realized high audio quality equal to that of a serious stereo system.
The speaker grills use textiles made by Nuno Corporation, which is managed by famous Japanese textile designer Reiko Sudo. We want you to enjoy the fusion of tradition and technology that is the goal of the New Vintage series.
As to be expected in this age of network audio, these systems support a wide variety of digital sources. The extensive network streaming playback functions include the Spotify Internet streaming service for high-quality audio, Google Play Music, which supports cloud services, and TuneIn, which enables listening to Internet radio from around the world for free. Along with streaming, you can listen to wireless playback of music from smartphones and easily enjoy audio libraries of various formats, including audio files saved on music servers on the same network and USB flash drives.
The playback of these audio sources can be easily controlled using the dedicated free TEAC HR AirCast app for iOS and Android devices. With it, you can work with your own libraries as you like, including track selection, volume adjustment and playlist creation. A multiroom function also allows you to control multiple WS-A70 systems simultaneously. You can share your libraries throughout your home, eliminating the need to prepare audio sources in each room.
