Samsung’s New Wi-Fi Speaker Has Huge Monolith Power

It’s not every single day {that a} widespread Wi-Fi speaker manages to pique your curiosity, however Samsung is a minimum of attempting to spice issues up with its new Music Studio 5 and Music Studio 7.

Samsung’s new speakers, which will probably be showcased at CES 2026 in January, have been made in collaboration with French designer Erwan Bouroullec, who’s finest identified for modern and minimalist work in inside design. In line with Samsung, the audio system each characteristic a “timeless dot idea… impressed by a common image in music and artwork.” Whether or not it’s your factor is subjective, clearly, however I type of dig it. Personally, I get extra monolith from 2001: A House Odyssey vibes than something, although that’s in all probability much less marketable than the “timeless dot idea.”

Samsung says the Music Studio 7 is its “most immersive mannequin” within the product sequence and comes with 3.1.1-channel spatial audio which you could hear by means of the left, entrance, proper, and top-firing audio system. It has as much as 24-bit audio processing at 96 kHz, which needs to be sufficient for any hi-fi fanatic, and may be paired with different Samsung Wi-Fi audio system.

The Music Studio 5, then again, is “designed for houses the place aesthetic concord is as vital as sound,” in line with Samsung, which is its manner of claiming that the machine is a bit of smaller and fewer clearly a speaker. This speaker comes with a 4-inch woofer, two tweeters, and in addition (just like the Music Studio 7) has Samsung’s AI Dynamic Bass Management, which is supposed to reinforce low finish and decrease distortion.

Each audio system will have the ability to forged by way of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and so they additionally assist voice management, which aren’t groundbreaking options by any means, however nonetheless good to know before you purchase.

These audio system are actually extra in regards to the look than something, although, and in the event you’re into minimalism, these may very well be the Wi-Fi audio system for you. If nothing else, these are positively going to be an alternate for any Sonos followers on the market who need to make a swap for aesthetic or app-related reasons.

Whereas the Music Studio audio system are all in regards to the appears, you’ll need to be okay with black since that’s the one shade they arrive in for now. There’s no phrase on pricing but, however I wouldn’t anticipate both speaker to return low-cost. I assume we’ll have the complete particulars on pricing and a launch date as soon as CES rolls round subsequent week, although.
