Edifier Unveils Integrated QD35 Tabletop Bluetooth Speaker with GaN Charger and Light Effects

Edifier unveiled the QD35 – an original tabletop speaker that combines Bluetooth with the LDAC codec and a 24-bit/96kHz-capable USB input, and therefore received both Hi-Res Audio and Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification. The original design, with a show-through front panel that reveals an intricate maze of light tubes - Nixie tube style - is able to change color and generate pulsating, dynamic effects combined with the audio. And because Edfier is a large Chinese audio equipment manufacturer with the necessary resources, the QD35 is also a GaN charger.
