Canston Equips Bluetooth 4.0 Chipset for Stable Data Transmission with Various Smart Devices
Down-Firing Woofer System Delivers More Immersive Sound

Canston Acoustics Co., Ltd. (CEO Han Jong-min) has announced the launch of the Canston W1 Shuffle, a portable speaker equipped with Bluetooth functionality.

Recently, sales of wireless digital products without cables have shown continuous growth, including Bluetooth earphones, Bluetooth headphones, and keyboards. Against this backdrop, the iPhone 7 released last month eliminated the earphone jack and introduced wireless earphones, driving increased interest in the Bluetooth market.

As demand for Bluetooth audio devices continues to rise, Bluetooth speakers that add wireless convenience have emerged as the mainstream, aligned with current market trends.

The Canston W1 Shuffle, as befits a Bluetooth product, enhances portability with its compact size. Its one-handed form factor and support for various audio inputs allow rich sound enjoyment of audio from various devices both indoors and outdoors.

Notable is the incorporation of the latest Bluetooth 4.0 chipset. This enables stable, low-power data transmission with smart devices, meaning audio from wireless smart devices within approximately 10 meters can be enjoyed in high quality without interruption. Despite its small body size, the product can deliver powerful sound that brings various content to life.

While Bluetooth speakers offer the advantage of convenient use, they show some weakness in sound quality. The W1 Shuffle addresses this by incorporating a down-firing woofer that reflects sound off the floor. With the full-range unit designed to face downward, it enhances sound and delivers more vibrant audio.

The engineered unit also plays a significant role in enabling the W1 Shuffle to produce powerful full-power sound. Equipped with premium units tuned directly by acoustic experts, it delivers powerful sound performance, enabling more immersive and powerful sound listening.

Supporting not only Bluetooth audio streaming but also external input (AUX) function, connection with various audio source devices is possible. Particularly, a TF card slot on the rear enables music listening without a smartphone. By saving desired music on a TF card, users can listen to their preferred music anytime, anywhere.

The touch panel on top employs an intuitive interface design. Operation is possible with light touches, and volume and playback controls are applied via the touch panel for enhanced user convenience. Additionally, Blue LED lighting that creates subtle illumination adds sophistication as mood lighting.

Canston CEO Han Jong-min commented on the background of the W1 Shuffle launch, stating "As demand for various audio devices and IT products equipped with Bluetooth functionality is increasing at a rapid pace, we have launched the portable Bluetooth speaker W1 Shuffle in line with market trends."

He further stated "This product captures three rabbits at once—convenience, design, and performance of Bluetooth products—and is a product expected to receive high user satisfaction," expressing expectations for the product.

Meanwhile, the Canston W1 Shuffle is running a special half-price event to commemorate its launch. The W1 Shuffle with a launch price of 25,200 won is being sold at a 50% discount of 12,600 won through Danawa's DPG special sale mall.
