A bulb wireless speaker for iPod

Sometimes we see the arrival of products bizarre improbable chimeras between several functions. And the Luminor from Scott is a product of this type. This is an LED Wi-Fi Speaker for iPod. Explain. The Luminor consists of two things: a bulb and a docking station. The bulb actually combines a loudspeaker 20 W and 85 white LEDs, all powered by an E27, fairly standard.

Wi-Fi connected to a docking station, it illuminates your interior and playing music. The dock, which can controller 8 devices, offers a socket "dock" for Apple devices (iPhone, iPod), USB input and a memory card reader to play MP3 files and a line input jack (analog) to stream music from any compatible device.

The idea is to distribute music from the cradle to the bulbs that serve as speakers, which allows them to hide easily. The company also offers, in addition to the bulbs, a subwoofer 130 W, also wireless. The company says the range is 30 meters, which seems correct. Luminor is sold as a kit at a price of 200 € for a bulb and a docking station, 100 € for an extra bulb and 130 € for the subwoofer.

It remains to see two things: the audio quality of the thing and use the bulb itself (and its characteristics), which unfortunately is not stated.
