OPPO Digital Announces Sonica Wi-Fi Speakers

MENLO PARK, CA--(Marketwired - April 18, 2016) -  OPPO Digital, renowned for award-winning universal disc players and personal audio products, announces that a new product series, the Sonica Wi-Fi Speakers, will join its product lineup soon.

Sonica is an elegant and powerful Wi-Fi speaker designed with state of the art technology delivering unbeatable sound quality in a compact package. Sonica comes equipped with Wi-Fi, AirPlay and Bluetooth capabilities, and the companion smartphone and tablet app makes it easy to manage multiple speakers on the same network. The Sonica app puts you in the conductor's seat, allowing you to have every speaker play the same song in unison or enjoy a difference listening experience around every corner.

Acoustic design and tuning of the Sonica Wi-Fi Speaker is performed by Igor Levitsky, the same designer behind the award-winning OPPO PM-series planar magnetic headphones. The speaker drivers, amplifiers, and chassis have all been expertly tuned for a deep, pure, and engaging sound that can be further optimized with built-in presets for different room sizes, speaker locations, and listening preferences using the Sonica app.

Sonica is capable of decoding audio files up to 24-bit / 192 kHz from your mobile devices, USB drives, DLNA servers, and NAS drives. It supports established lossless audio formats such as FLAC, WAV, and Apple Lossless, so you don't have to compromise on quality. Additionally, multiple built-in adaptive antennae with MIMO technology ensure stellar signal strength for 2.4 and 5 GHz 802.11ac Wi-Fi (compatible with 802.11a/b/g/n), meaning users stay in control of the experience wherever in the house they may be.

Sonica was first revealed at the March 2016 CanJam SoCal event, a gathering of music and personal audio enthusiasts. OPPO is adding the final touches before releasing Sonica to production. Customers can expect a stylish product to add to their living space and to enjoy emotionally engaging music with the Sonica Wi-Fi Speakers. The estimated retail price for the first Sonica speaker model is $299, and the estimated release date is around May/June of 2016. OPPO plans to follow up the release with a larger version that has seven drivers, and a smaller version that is more portable in the near future.
