Hybrid Outdoor Audio Speakers

The Latest Sony GTK-PG10 Speaker Serves the Function of a Table

— January 11, 2019 — Lifestyle
An outdoor audio speaker is a must for any summer lawn party or family BBQ. Sony, however, goes out of its way to not only provide consumers with impeccable, high-quality sound but also to offer a convenience-focused object with a dual purpose. The all-new GTK-PG10 is part of the company's Extra Bass Bluetooth collection. The product is intended to be used as an outdoor audio speaker, with the option for "a more expansive soundstage."

In developing this piece, Sony really took into consideration the conventional dynamics of a party -- namely, the presence of drinks and the occasional desire for a karaoke session. As a result, the GTK-PG10 features a table-like construction with drink holders, a water-resistant top, as well as an extra mic input should one feel the desire to sing.
