The Outlet Speaker offers consumers high-performance audio anywhere there is an outlet, with wireless streaming from their smartphone via Bluetooth. With the AR Bluetooth Outlet Speaker, users can play, power and charge the device all at the same time, all from a single piece designed to blend into the environment without being too big or conspicuous.

"Some areas of the home could use music but don't have a place for a speaker," explained David Geise, President of VOXX Accessories Corporation. "Still, it would be nice to listen to your music library while fixing dinner, getting ready in the morning, or even just relaxing wherever on a Saturday afternoon. The Bluetooth Outlet Speaker by Acoustic Research puts that music anywhere there's an outlet. Just plug it in!"

The AR Bluetooth Outlet Speaker delivers crystal-clear sound without the mess or fuss of batteries or power cords. The Outlet Speaker's design features a rubberized finish with mesh grill and a symmetric shape that works in up- or down-oriented outlets.
