CMF’s first wireless speakers look like musical milk cartons

CMF 的首款无线音箱看起来就像音乐牛奶盒。

The CMF Speaker Series are launching in two sizes with panels and knobs that can be customized with 3D printing.

CMF 音箱系列推出了两种尺寸,其面板和旋钮均可通过 3D 打印进行定制。

The CMF Speaker Series are the first portable Bluetooth speakers from the budget-focused brand that Nothing created but is in the process of spinning off into an India-based standalone subsidiary. As with many of CMF’s products, like the Headphone Pro that launched a year ago, the new speakers deliver affordability alongside unique designs and bright color options that help them stand out from the competition. While the company doesn’t directly cite a grocery store’s dairy aisle as the inspiration for its latest hardware, it’s hard not to look at these and immediately see electronic milk cartons.

CMF 音箱系列是该主打性价比品牌推出的首款便携式蓝牙音箱。该品牌由 Nothing 创建,目前正处于分拆为一家印度独立子公司的过程中。正如一年前推出的 Headphone Pro 等许多 CMF 产品一样,新款音箱在保持价格亲民的同时,还提供了独特的设计和鲜艳的配色,使其在竞争中脱颖而出。虽然该公司并未直接表示其最新硬件的灵感来源于杂货店的乳制品货架,但人们很难不将其联想为电子牛奶盒。

There are two versions of the CMF Speaker Series available starting today in white, dark gray, orange, and turquoise color options. The $59 CMF Speaker S is the smaller of the two and features a “custom-tuned” 45mm full-range driver paired with two passive radiators to help boost the presence of low-end frequencies. The larger $109 CMF Speaker M instead features two drivers including a 10W tweeter and a dedicated 25W woofer for improved bass performance and better separation of instruments and singers.

CMF 音箱系列从今天起提供两个版本,有白色、深灰色、橙色和绿松石色可选。售价 59 美元的 CMF Speaker S 是两者中较小的一款,配备了一个“定制调校”的 45 毫米全频驱动单元,并配有两个无源辐射器,以增强低频表现。售价 109 美元的较大款 CMF Speaker M 则配备了两个驱动单元,包括一个 10W 高音单元和一个专用的 25W 低音单元,以提升低音表现并实现更好的人声与乐器分离度。

Both speakers offer up to 18 hours of battery life, have an IP68 water and dust resistance rating, and can have their sound profile customized through the Nothing X app. That customizability extends to the design of the CMF Speaker Series, too. The multifunction knob on the front that controls volume and playback and the speaker’s entire front panel, including the vertical flap on top that can be used for hanging, can be easily removed and swapped with an alternate color or a completely different design. CMF plans to release the official design file so modders can 3D print their own unique customizations.

两款音箱均提供长达 18 小时的电池续航,具备 IP68 级防水防尘性能,并可通过 Nothing X 应用程序自定义声音配置文件。这种可定制性也延伸到了 CMF 音箱系列的设计上。位于正面用于控制音量和播放的多功能旋钮,以及包括顶部可用于悬挂的垂直翻盖在内的整个前面板,都可以轻松拆卸,并更换为其他颜色或完全不同的设计。CMF 计划发布官方设计文件,以便改装爱好者能够 3D 打印出属于自己的独特定制件。

Other features include a dual-device connection for quickly jumping back and forth between two wireless audio sources, Bluetooth 6, fast pairing using NFC, Google Fast Pair, or Microsoft Swift Pair, and audio over a USB-C cable. You can also pair two of the Speaker S or two of the Speaker M (you can’t mix and match) for a left-and-right stereo mode, or synchronize the full mix to several other speakers simultaneously, even from other companies, using an Auracast-based party mode.

其他功能包括用于在两个无线音频源之间快速切换的双设备连接、蓝牙 6、使用 NFC、Google Fast Pair 或 Microsoft Swift Pair 进行快速配对,以及通过 USB-C 线缆传输音频。你还可以将两台 Speaker S 或两台 Speaker M 配对(不能混搭)以实现左右声道立体声模式,或者使用基于 Auracast 的派对模式,将完整的音频同步到其他几台音箱上,甚至包括其他公司的产品。
