Minimalist design, maximum entertainment

The Soundfreaq Sound Platform has a simple, understated design. But inside this minimalist box is a powerful and versatile speaker system that provides both wired and wireless entertainment. Listen to your favorite radio station through the system's built-in FM tuner, or to music from your docked iPod or iPhone. Stream audio wirelessly from a compatible Bluetooth device — there's even an auxiliary input to connect older portables.

Soundfreaq Sound Platform

Great sound, regardless of the source

With the Sound Platform you can experience full, expansive sound. The system features balanced, full-range drivers that are strengthened with Kevlar to ensure accurate sound reproduction. Rear-firing tuned ports enhance the low tones, giving you warm, natural bass.

The system includes Soundfreaq's proprietary UQ3 spatial enhancement processor. This advanced circuitry expands the system's soundfield, giving you truly room-filling sound.


Made for iPod and other devices

Front and center on the system is a dock for your iPod or iPhone. You can play music from your docked device as it automatically charges. But you can also play audio through the system wirelessly via Bluetooth. So you can enjoy music from your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.

Have a non-Apple portable with Bluetooth? Then you can use it with the Sound Platform. Enjoy music from your Bluetooth-enabled smartphone or PDA. Stream tunes from your computer via Bluetooth. And with an iPad, you can play any audio so you can watch videos or play games, all with full, rich sound.


Remote control options

Soundfreaq Sound Platform detail

The system comes with its own remote. Hidden in the right side of the Sound Platform is a special storage compartment. A magnet holds the remote in place so it doesn't tumble out when you open the panel.

You can also download a free Soundfreaq Remote app from the iTunes® App Store for your iPhone or iPad. This app turns your device into the remote, for full control over the system. The on-screen menus make it easy to select songs, navigate playlists, adjust settings and tune in radio stations — all through the Bluetooth connection between your device and the Sound Platform.

Audio Section

High Quality Audio Performance: The Soundfreaq Sound Platform high fidelity sound system delivers balanced, natural sound with smooth bass, vocal clarity, & crisp highs that complement any genre of music.

Class D Amplifier: The Soundfreaq Sound Platform employs a class D amplifier to power its enclosed drivers. The unit's class D amplifier & DSP (digital signal processor) are tuned to dynamically reproduce balanced sound across the frequency spectrum (20-20kHz).

UQ3 Spatial Sound Enhancement: Relative to larger speaker system, compact home audio products have a relatively short distance between the left & right speakers, resulting in limited stereo separation. UQ3 DSP technology creates a psychoacoustic effect by controlling sound wave interaction that enhances the perceived stereo separation. The benefit is that you get a compact system while enjoying an immersive audio experience.

Custom Engineered Drivers: The Soundfreaq Sound Platform is fitted with dual 2.75" full-range Kevlar-reinforced balanced drivers which provide light-weight, well dampened rigidity to control motion. The magnets that drive the speakers' voice coils are a unique blend of iron & carbon that allow a longer excursion of the diaphragm. This "long-throw" design displaces a larger air volume which creates deep, smooth bass sound.

Dual Port Chambers: The Dual Port Chambers control air flow in the system. As the speaker ports wrap from the driver to the rear ports, the nautilus shaped path increases the air travel while allowing the acoustic chamber to fit within a compact footprint. Using reinforced plastic resin and sealed assembly, air leaks & unintended reverberation that degrade sound performance are eliminated.

Audio Sources

Four Ways to Play: The Soundfreaq Sound Platform plays audio from four different sources (Bluetooth, iPod dock, FM, & Aux) offering a great deal of flexibility. Its easy to use with many different devices and share with your family, friends, & co-workers.

Bluetooth Wireless: The Soundfreaq Sound Platform supports Bluetooth (ver. 2.0) A2DP wireless audio streaming. The Soundfreaq's built-in Bluetooth wireless function works with many A2DP compatible devices & wirelessly plays any audio (including music & apps) that would otherwise play through the device's internal speaker or headphone. The Sound Platform's built-in Bluetooth enables broad bandwidth transfer of high quality digital audio from up to 33' away. The Sound Platform's built-in Bluetooth supports many of today's most popular Bluetooth enabled devices - such as your Apple mobile device (iPod touch, iPhone, iPad); smartphone (Android, Blackberry, HTC, LG, Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, Toshiba); & laptop (Windows/Mac).

Note: Due to the differences in Bluetooth technology, some Bluetooth enabled devices may be incompatible, function improperly, or may not support all features when used with the Sound Platform.

Apple Dock: The Soundfreaq Sound Platform features an Apple 30-pin dock connector with universal well for audio playback, remote control, & charging of most docking Apple iPods & iPhones. The Sound Platform is compatible with the following iPods & iPhones (as of November 2011):
