Sony unveils portable Bluetooth speaker system for on-the-go surround sound

Just to be clear, because the articles often are not: You will not hear surround sound. You will hear stereo sound surrounding you.

This will be great for getting a feeling of a wider soundscape. I haven't heard it but i'd guess it also messes up the soundstage of the music actually has or it sounds more like headphones. You technically could listen to real surround sounds with just three speakers but this only connects to stereo bluetooth sources.

Imagine one of those puck speakers rolling far away, or somewhere you can't reach.

Hey, maybe all those people listening to mono audio on their little Bluetooth speakers can finally experience stereo or more. Welcome to 1957!

I like this because the only way I buy Bluetooth speakers is if you can buy two that easily pair to create proper stereo separation. In a world where everyone seems to use a single mono speaker, bringing 2 dinky speakers has consistently blown other people's minds more than any audio setup I've ever had and it's always surprised me.

I had never thought about having wireless satellites on a Bluetooth speaker. Everything sounds amazing except for the price!
