Sony has announced the launch of a wireless handy TV speaker, the SRS-LSR200 in Europe, available to purchase from July in the United Kingdom, Germany, Austria and Switzerland and from September in the rest of Sony’s European markets.
With SRS-LSR200 you can take the sound of the TV with you to virtually anywhere in the house*1. With three integrated speakers that deliver clear, crisp and natural sound, and innovative Voice Zoom technology that makes dialogue clearer and easier to hear, you’ll not miss a moment with the Wireless Handy TV Speaker. The device takes the sound from the TV and plays it back to you in crystal clear clarity, so whether the TV is difficult to hear, or you want to enjoy watching TV with your family or friends without needing to turn the TV volume up to a high level, the SRS-LSR200 will help you hear better the action and dialogue on screen.
The new handy speaker from Sony is sturdy and portable. It has a convenient handle to carry it around the house so that you can enjoy crystal-clear sound in your place of choice. For extra comfort, it has an integrated remote control, allowing easy changing of channels and inputs, and works with major TV brands. SRS-LSR200 is also drip-proof, so if you plan on cooking and watching your favourite show, you don’t have to worry about damaging the speaker by splashing water on it.
Main features
Voice speaker that clearly reproduces a person’s voice
SRS-LSR200 has a dedicated centre voice speaker positioned between the left and right stereo speakers. It mainly outputs the sound frequencies of the voice and suppresses the influence from the left and right speakers
which minimizes distortion and allows the reproduction of a crisp and clear voice.
“Voice Zoom” function to reproduce a person’s voice clearly
SRS-LSR200 is equipped with a “Voice Zoom” function that detects the components of the human voice and makes it stand out. In addition to the normal stereo playback mode, it offers “Voice Zoom 1”, which brings voice to the front, and “Voice Zoom 2”, which emphasises high frequencies. You can switch between the modes easily using a designated button.
Passive radiators, realistically reproducing the lower register of the voice, mounted on the left and right sides of the device
By outputting the lower register of the voice from the left and right speakers and passive radiators, the voice sounds naturally and realistically.
Easy-to-use integrated TV remote control
SRS-LSR200 comes with an integrated remote to control the TV from a distance. In addition, Sony’s new handy speaker features a big volume dial and easy-to-read buttons and is drip-proof.
Easy charging
You can charge the speaker conveniently by simply placing it on the charging dock. A 3-hour charge allows a continuous use of the speaker for about 13 hours*4.
Intuitive and easy-to-understand set-up
Both the charging dock and the connecting cables are labelled with colour-coded numbers making the set-up truly effortless even if you’re not great with electronic equipment.
Stable wireless connectivity
The transmitter and speaker units are connected by 2.4 GHz wireless transmission one-to-one, for a low latency connection with high resistance to interference. Hear sound from the TV and the speaker simultaneously for a natural listening experience.
Pricing and availability
Sony’s wireless handy TV speaker SRS-LSR200 will go on sale in the UK and Ireland from July priced at £159 and €189.
