PSB’s Alpha IQ Wireless Speakers Shed Drab for Dutch Orange and Tangerine Yellow

PSB Speakers releases three new finishes for the Alpha iQ, all-in-one wireless bookshelf speakers featuring built-in streaming and amplification.

Canada is rather drab looking; driving through my hometown last week on vacation, two of my children remarked that Toronto was extremely beige looking and not in a good way. Loudspeakers suffer from that as well because manufacturers want their products to work when it comes to home decor — very few people want their high-end expenditure to illicit dirty looks from an angry spouse having just dropped $4,000 on a pair of loudspeakers.

PSB, which is based just outside of Toronto, has never really offered any of its speakers in a wide range of finishes or colors. KEF or Focal’s approach has never worked for the Canadian company.

Until now.

Prepare yourself for the new generation of anti-beige loudspeakers from PSB.

PSB Speakers, makers of award-winning, high-fidelity loudspeakers since 1972, announces three new finish options for the Alpha iQ, Streaming Powered Speakers with BluOS: Tangerine Yellow, Midnight Blue and Dutch Orange.

The Alpha iQ are the brand’s first wireless streaming bookshelf speakers that integrate control, source and amplification in an all-in-one system.

    That seems like a more realistic price. Thought they were a bit pricey at $2200 CAD but $1700 seems reasonable. Is this just a sale, or have they readjusted the price?

      Mike,

      I think they realized that the price was too high and readjusted.
