Energy System Frame Speaker, is a frame and also a speaker

Now that technology is relatively democratized, it is time to bet on design. Often betting on striking finishes was detrimental to good results. This you know well Energy Sistem that has decided to bet on decorating our house without giving up powerful sound and with extensive connectivity in all areas.

We analyze the Energy System Fram Speaker, a design and limited edition box that houses inside a powerful triple speaker and infinite connection possibilities. Discover with us this peculiar device that could become one of the most popular decoration of the rooms of your home.

Design and materials: If it is a speaker ... why does it look like a painting?

Well, answering the question in the title, precisely because it is actually a painting, but it is also a loudspeaker, something that may be difficult for you to assimilate. We have three frame designs limited to 1.000 units of each of them, un first painting called East Beach with modernist airs, the Flamingo edition that as you can imagine is an oil flamenco and the edition of our analysis, the model forest, a work by Spanish photographer Samuel Cano that looks great.

• Size: 471 x 371 x 55 mm
• Weight: 3,1 Kg

As we have said, we have a rectangular painted canvas with dimensions of 471 x 371 millimeters accompanied by a thickness of 55 millimeters (including frame). It is not too big, nor too thick considering that it includes a powerful speaker system, and this is surprising when you see it for the first time. Our edition has the frame in beech color, although the other two additions have a frame in white.

• Edition flamingo: Painted by Mónica Jimeno
• Edition Forest: Photograph by Samuel Cano
• Edition East Beach: Painted by Antonyo Marest

On one of the sides we find the multimedia control port and of course the connections, fully integrated into the frame and that fades into the design without attracting attention. This is where we have all the ports and buttons that will allow us to handle it with total ease, as well as the microUSB charging port, because it is a speaker box and as such requires a battery to work.

Technical specifications: Lots of power and connectivity

We have a stereo sound system hidden behind the canvas, it has a 2.1 W 50 system with Bass Reflex system. For this, it has two 10 W and 2-inch speakers, as well as another 30 W of power with a size of 4 inches. It handles sound with a frequency range of 85 Hz to 16 KHz. The result is pretty amazing power for a device of this size, honestly it sounds strong, it sounds relatively good and it offers some pretty good bass and acoustic range, especially if we consider that in addition to being hung on a wall… what the hell, it's a painting!

At the level of connectivity we do not lack absolutely anything, We start with Bluetooth 5.0 Class II connectivity, this means that we have better autonomy, better range and a slightly clearer sound, so we will be able to send any type of music or sound from our mobile phone to this Energy Sistem Frame Speaker with almost no limitations. We have seen how, for example, our smartphone played on Spotify quite far from the speaker and we had no interference. It has several added connections:

• USB storage devices up to 128GB
• Micro SD card reader up to 128 GB
• Remote control
• FM radio

Definitely, Thanks to its physical ports we will also be able to play our music stored both on memory cards and on USB devices, and that is an advantage if we want to save on autonomy or if we simply do not have Bluetooth devices nearby. All this thanks to its reproduction system, which we will be able to control both from the buttons on the panel and from the remote control that these Energy Sistem devices usually include.

True Wireless Stereo and autonomy

We start with one of the most striking systems, we have TWS, this means yesIf we have two of these devices, they will be able to communicate with each other to offer sound simultaneously and adjusting so that it is stereo, This is thanks to Bluetooth 5.0 and TWS technology that Energy Sistem has already used in other devices such as its headphones. It is quite appreciated, because if we place for example two of these on different walls of a living room, the sound sensation becomes quite enveloping and pleasant, although it should be noted that the TWS is only compatible with these speakers of the same range and edition.

In terms of autonomy we have a 4.000 mAh batterywith standard charge, this has offered us around 12 hours of music at intermediate power in our tests, But remember, it will depend a lot on whether we use Bluetooth, the remote, the power, the distance ... I would not get used to the idea of ​​always reaching 12 hours, but at least 10 sheets, which is not bad. The problem comes when you have to load the box, 7 hours for a full charge That has left us very disappointed, and that leads us to think that perhaps the ideal is to always keep it connected via a microUSB cable to a power supply, but then it loses much of its simplicity and cleanliness in silence, don't you think?

Editor's opinion: An almost round product

I must be honest and say that I really liked this Energy Sistem Smart Speaker, we have a speaker that is actually a box and that offers quite high power and good levels of connectivity. From my point of view, including Amazon's Alexa, as other devices from the Spanish firm already do, would have been a very favorable point and would have differentiated it from the competition. It has extremely good things like the design, the connectivity and its ease of use, but having to invest almost 7 hours on a full charge becomes a nightmare despite its enormous autonomy that exceeds 10 hours.

You can buy it directly on the Energy Sistem website for 139 euros (link) or at the best price as always on Amazon (link). It is a product that will look great in the rooms of the youngest of the house thanks to its designs, it makes you forget about small dishes and speakers and fills a medium-sized room with its powerful sound without any problem.
