Bluetooth amp?

Post by dtox » Tue Jul 17, 2018 6:21 pm

So I was watching this video interview with Cliff Cooper that the Orange Facebook shared today. https://youtu.be/Uya1EglEtHY
And at 15:05 Cliff mentioned a Bluetooth amp called the “Juice Box” coming out in September. Anyone hear anything about this yet?

I wonder if it's going to be an amp or like those powered bluetooth speakers similar to the Marshall ones....?

My thoughts is probably more like the Marshall speakers. There is probably too much of a signal delay to make the Bluetooth work for a guitar. Either way I’m sure they will get my money.

I find bluetooth to be unreliable at times and drop out - reconnecting can be time-consuming, too. Not good on a gig.

Cool! Put some decent drivers in there and I'm in! No more of this portable compact stuff. We want sound quality!
