O dizajnu Nostalx Zvučnik

Nostalx je Bluetooth zvučnik u retro stilu koji kombinuje reprodukciju muzike sa višebendnim radio prijemom. Sistem upravljanja uključuje dva dugmeta, tri tastera i prekidač sa više položaja. Lijevo dugme bira radio kanale, dok desno dugme podešava jačinu zvuka i isključuje zvučnik na minimalnoj postavci. Prekidač sa više položaja prebacuje između Bluetooth, FM, AM i SW moda. Kućište može biti izrađeno od obojene plastike, drveta ili mat akrila. Nostalx zamjenjuje digitalne ekrane taktilnim kontrolama kako bi stvorio čulno iskustvo slušanja.
