Not to be lost in this range, manufacturers have begun to choose a niche and produce column narrow focus. This is a young American brand of DreamWave.

In comparison with other manufacturers of wireless acoustics this is definitely a young player — brand in just seven years, but during this time he has managed to settle in a particular direction — extreme. Its device is not similar to competitors in that they are intended mainly for fans of active rest, Hiking, the “threat” of summer get-togethers and so on. In DreamWave not hide the fact that originally designed their speakers for use in extreme conditions Cycling through the mountains, climbing a couple thousand meters above sea level, “survive” in the concert (just kidding).
