At CES we spotted a very interesting speaker hiding behind the plants, near Sony information desk at CES. Yes, you guessed it right - it was Sountina! Omni-directional speaker finally made it to the US shores to be shown off. However, I am pretty sure most of the attendees walked past by it and never paid any deserved attention to this pricey and at the same time one of a kind, Qualia spirited creation. I had a chance to speak to a few Sony employees about it and even surprised a few Sony execs who were at the time hanging around that speaker by asking them why Sountina was being neglected. One of the execs mentioned that I was the first one that actually knew the name of the speaker and inquired about it.
Anywho, Sountina is available for purchase in the US, however will not be sold through its regular channels like Sonystyle stores and dealers. There is a cierge service available at Sony that sells high end products to rich and famous, Sountina will be sold through that service exclusively. Sony sees this speaker to be sitting in luxury hotels and mansions of Hollywood celebs outputting sonic joy to its listeners.
As we mentioned before the cost of this one of a kind speaker is pretty high, around 12 grand. I should have asked if the speaker innards
