We dropped by the American Audio booth here at NAMM 2015 to take a look at their new ELS Go line of rechargeable, Bluetooth-enabled portable speakers. The smaller model is called the ELS Go 8 BT, which has an 8″ woofer 100 watts of power, and comes with a three-channel mixer in the back and inputs for a USB thumb drive and an SD card.
The larger model is the ELS Go 15 BT, which has a 15″ woofer for more low end and power. Both models run for 8 hours at around 75% volume, and apart from the usual mains connector, the ELS Go 8 also has connectors for charging with a car adapter when you’re out on the road and need to charge.
Both models will be available from March 2015. Check out our talkthrough video for more details.
Ever wished you could gig anywhere, even without a power socket? Do portable, battery-powered speakers like these interest you? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
