LAB REVIEW

Teenage Engineering has done it again. The OD-11 Cloud Speaker builds upon the legendary 1974 loudspeaker by Swedish sound genius Stig Carlsson, adding wireless functionality for connecting your modern devices. Not only did Teenage Engineering re-engineer the speaker from the ground up, they also stayed true to Carlsson’s original vision of a speaker that sounds great and “is designed for use in a regular home.” By working closely with the Stig Carlsson foundation, Teenage Engineering continue Carlsson’s mission for great natural sound.

The OD-11’s unique shape and two-way ortho directional design delivers excellent sound no matter if it is on the floor, in a book shelf, or mounted on the wall. In addition, the new OD-11 sports an “ortho engine,” a custom designed computer, processing the crossover filtering and all wireless communication, as well as a 100 watt analog class D amplifier and wireless stereo (wifi, bluetooth, spotify, airplay), transforming the 70’s classic into a modern music system that allows wireless play from practically any device or platform.
