Materials and design

Designed in Stockholm, where mastery of contemporary minimalism is the norm, the NS2 look great wherever you put them. Each component, from the hand-crafted/rubber-coated cabinets to the Kevlar-reinforced woofers and silk dome tweeters, has been carefully designed to offer an exceptional blend of sound and durability.

Airplay

The NS2 is fully integrated with AirPlay wireless technology, meaning you can wirelessly stream music throughout your entire house. Enjoy your complete music library -- every song, every playlist -- in any room, at any time!

If the NS2 had a motto, it would be “hear everywhere at once.” For instance, say you have one set of speakers in your bedroom, another in your office, and a third in your living room. With the NS2, you can turn your lair into a formidable “house of sound” by streaming your music to multiple rooms simultaneously, thus guaranteeing that you’ll never miss a beat no matter where in the house you are. Just choose “Multiple Speakers” from the AirPlay menu in iTunes – then sit back and prepare to be have your house (and your world) rocked.
