Offering both impressive technology and social good support, the LSTN '[Apollo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/element-house)' Ebony Wood Bluetooth Speaker is a modern piece of technology for audiophiles to enjoy.

Crafted from wood, the speaker features a [dual-driver Bluetooth speaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bluetooth-audio) within that is supported by the wooden aesthetic that will help music resonate properly. Able to provide up to 10 hours of music playback thanks to the built-in rechargeable battery, the speaker is great for home use or while on the go.

The most important part of the LSTN 'Apollo' Ebony Wood Bluetooth Speaker -- as with all the brand's products -- is its commitment to community. For every speaker purchased, the brand will provide a hearing aid to someone in need through the [Starkey Hearing Foundation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auracast-streaming).
