Lithe Audio today announced that the company’s new iO1 all-in-one wireless indoor and outdoor speaker will be making its world debut at CEDIA Expo 2022. Offering a variety of mounting configurations, the iO1 includes a high-efficiency amplifier, wired and wireless connectivity options and its a weather-resistant, IP66-rated speaker with an aluminum grille that requires only a power source for installation.

Designed for areas that require high-end audio quality but can’t accommodate a traditional ceiling speaker, the iO1 can be installed in six mounting configurations — on-wall, in-corner, on-corner, ground spike, countertop and pendant. Featuring dual full-range woofers, titanium tweeters and two 60W RMS Class D amplifiers, the speaker delivers full high-resolution audio at 192 kHz, 24 bits in these spaces. For connectivity, the iO1 supports both Bluetooth 5.0 and 5GHz and 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, while embedded AirPlay 2 and Chromecast technologies enable the simple creation of distributed audio systems.

Available in black and white, the speaker features an optical input and two Ethernet ports — one for a hardwired network connection, and one for daisy-chaining another speaker. The iO1 can be powered by a standard electrical outlet or existing lighting circuit; is available with drivers for Control4, Elan, KNX, and Loxone control systems; and provides support for Alexa and OK Google for convenient voice control.

At CEDIA Expo 2022, Lithe Audio’s iO1 will be on display in booth 29093 or you can see them here: https://www.litheaudio.com
