Braven showed off an entire wireless home audio system at CES 2014 with a few twists to give you advantages over some of the other players in the market such as Sonos. The company’s Vibe series pictured above features a sharp aluminum and black look to differentiate it from most everything on the market. Moreover, the speakers are battery operated and bluetooth-ready meaning they can be useful in applications where your home WiFi network doesn’t exist.

If you like the industrial look of these systems and additional functionality of bluetooth integration and battery-operated speakers, then the Vibe system could be a good choice for you.

While at the company’s booth I also got a chance to check out the entire range of rugged and audiophile offerings such as the 710 as well as the 850/855s which can also charge your devices. The BRV-Bank was also on display and interesting in that it provides battery power and can also act as a flashlight with an external, included USB light.

As we look to bring our music to more places such as bike rides, camping and showers and our home stereo systems have moved from wired to bluetooth and WiFi, Braden and parent company Incipio are well-positioned to ride the wave.
