Amazon’s new Echo Sub, Echo Input, and Echo Link will make your speakers smarter
-
Amazon just announced the addition of four new audio
products in its Echo lineup. -
The Echo Input gives you Alexa control by connecting to
a non-echo speaker through an auxiliary cord or
bluetooth. -
The Echo Link connects to a receiver or amplifier, and
lets you control music selection, volume, and multi-room
playback through Alexa. -
The Echo Link Amp has the same functionality of the
Link, but includes a built-in amplifier. -
The Echo Sub adds a subwoofer to the Echo
lineup, and can be paired with two Echos for a 2.1 stereo sound
system.
Amazon just announced four new audio products meant to enhance
the home listening experience of Echo and Alexa users.
First up is the $129.99 Echo Sub, a subwoofer that will give
some extra bass to an Echo speaker system and can be paired with
two Echos to create a 2.1 stereo speaker setup.
The $199 Echo Link connects to a receiver or amplifier
through digital or analog inputs, and lets you control music
selection, volume, and multi-room playback through Alexa. The
$299.99 Echo Link Amp has the same functionality as the Link, but
has a built-in 60W 2-channel amplifier.
For those with non-Amazon or non-Alexa compatible speakers, the
$34.99 Echo Input gives you Alexa control over non-Echo speakers
— it can be connected to any speaker through Bluetooth or an
auxiliary cable, allowing you to use voice commands with the
device.
Before the Amazon devices event kicked off, two of Amazon’s new
products
seemed to be accidentally leaked by Amazon on its
website — The Echo Sub and the Amazon Smart Plug
were listed on Amazon’s store earlier in the day.
