The Hive, as I will introduce it here, refers to a high end new sound system, not the hairstyle British crooner Amy Winehouse recently made popular again. Having said that, Hive is a funny-looking sound system that consists of several hexagonal flat panels or cells in a honey comb pattern that can pivot or turn according to your needs.
It’s a beehive on the wall. The design is certainly very different and very bold and hopefully the listening experience will be just as good.
Hive is a simulated surround sound speaker system. As of now the market only has two options - either spread speakers around the room for the real experience or invest in a sound bar which usually consists of a long bar housing anywhere between 8-30 small speakers pointing in every direction for a simulated experience. The Hive takes the latter approach but adds in a bit of design since sound bars are pretty boring.
The hexagonal honey comb pattern is graphic, bold, and each cell can pivot or turn for a truly customized audible experience. And don’t worry about messy cables or cords. The Hive only has 2 at most - one for power, and one to connect to your home entertainment system.
