Jumpin’ Jack Splash! The Rolling Stones have just launched a range of Bluetooth speakers
You can’t always get what you want, but with prices starting at just $40 / £35, you can probably afford at least one of The Rolling Stones’ new Bluetooth speakers.
Dartford’s finest have just announced a collaboration between their own fashion and lifestyle brand RS No.9 and Californian audio brand Speaqua to reveal a range of five gorgeous Bluetooth speakers. And there’s no need to paint them black, as that would cover up the iconic tongue and lips logo on the front of the two different designs; The Cruiser ($40 / £35) and The Barnacle (from $75 / £60).
The Cruiser design is the perfect pocket size for late-night hikers and even includes a bottle opener for when you need a cold drink – sort of like a little helper for moms.
Can’t you hear me knocking? Not with this speaker…
Fire them up and these smaller speakers promise to give you five hours of satisfaction with their dual speaker pairing system. There’s also a leash attachment to attach to a backpack, belt loop or tent, because you don’t want to mess it up. The Cruiser comes in white, red and a checker graphic.
The larger Barnacle design in ‘Vibe’ and ‘Pro’ comes with a GoPro mount, a built-in carabiner clip, and even a suction cup. It can also store 2,000 songs, has an eight-hour battery life, and is waterproof, so even if your outdoor gathering starts screaming “Gimme shelter,” your speaker will keep pumping out sweet heavenly sounds.
A quick rundown of the models? Sure, time is on my side, after all. The largest Barnacle Vibe costs $105 / £90 (sadly, they’re currently out of stock in Australia), the Barnacle Pro costs $75 / £60 and the smallest Cruiser costs just $40 / £35.
Could they soon be joining the beggar’s banquet that is our best Bluetooth speakers roundup? We’re setting the wheels of steel in motion. My advice? Don’t wait for a friend to buy one for you…
