Loewe SoundPort Compact - The new Loewe speaker docking station with Apple Lightning connector and Bluetooth

Kronach, Germany - Introducing the Loewe Sound Port Compact speaker docking station. Designed to play music from a variety of sources - iDevices, Android smartphones and tablets, laptops, PCs and MP3 players, etc. - the Loewe SoundPort Compact includes an Apple Lightning connector. To ensure the highest possible transmission quality via Bluetooth and excellent sound, the Loewe Sound Port uses the apt-X codec. An integrated microphone transforms the docking station into a full-fledged hands-free system - ideal for conference calls. All of this advanced technology is packed in an impeccably crafted housing made from high grade aluminium. Special feature: a light touch on the top of the SoundPort opens the docking tray to reveal the integrated Apple Lightning connector. After use, the tray glides smoothly back into position in the elegant housing.

Impressive audio experience

Despite its compact design, the Loewe SoundPort offers rich stereo sound thanks to high-performance amplifiers with digital boosters. The SoundPort speaker system incorporates two combination mid-range speakers/tweeters plus woofer for a total music output of 80 watts. A bass reflex tube ensures an amazingly deep presence in the low frequency range. The premium-quality solid aluminium housing with cloth speaker cover selected by acoustic features guarantees excellent audio performance. At the touch of a button, an integrated microphone turns the SoundPort into a stationary hands-free system for incoming or outgoing calls. This makes telephone conferences via smartphone quick and easy at any time. Outstanding speech clarity is guaranteed thanks to integrated echo cancellation. The Loewe SoundPort ID can also be used via USB as a digital speaker for laptops and PCs - making the new system a versatile speaker docking station for use at home or in the office.

Connectivity Easy Pairing for convenient networking

Connectivity is a key feature of the Loewe SoundPort. Near Field Communication (NFC) technology makes it easy to connect a variety of modern mobile devices to the speaker docking station. An NFC-compatible mobile device is simply placed on the contact point marked on the SoundPort. A Bluetooth connection is established immediately and the unit is ready to start playing music with no need for complicated reconfiguration of settings in the device menu. To ensure the best possible signal transmission quality via Bluetooth and meet the highest standards, the Loewe SoundPort uses the apt-X codec. iPads can be placed upright in the docking station (using the Apple Lightning connector) or used in landscape mode (via Bluetooth). iDevices docked on the SoundPort can be synchronised with a laptop or PC connected via USB (iTunes Sync) at the touch of a button enabling you to be always up to date. Loewe SoundPort is fully compatible with standard operating systems, including iOS, Android and Windows. The unit can also be used to charge most mobile devices via the Apple Lightning Connector or the USB port.

Joy of use

Along with its elegantly crafted aluminium case available in Aluminium Silver or Aluminium Black, the Loewe SoundPort Compact shines with a wealth of high-end details. Five direct keys on top feature precision pressure points to control the unit and the multi-coloured LEDs show the operating mode at all times. The Loewe SoundPort Compact can also be operated via intelligent remote control devices. Maximum joy of use is guaranteed with the free Loewe Smart Audio app for iOS and Android smartphones. Those who prefer conventional operation can choose the optional Loewe Assist remote control.
