As remote workers flutter around the globe as digital nomads, now music producers can produce and play on the go with AIAIAI’s newest wireless studio monitors, the UNIT-4 Wireless+.

It’s introduced as the world’s very first wireless ultra-low latency studio speakers that are lightweight and easy to carry around when creating music.

These portable speakers from AIAIAI will provide total freedom on the road while providing “studio-grade performance”.

The UNIT-4 Wireless + has a few unique selling points depending on the user — if you enjoy a wireless setup throughout, this provides complete freedom from audio and power. It’s powered by a battery pack that is rechargeable and will allow 20+ hours of playback time. However, there are options to plug in all wires if that is your preferred option.

It includes a two-way active monitor with a precision tonal accuracy of flat +/-2dB frequency response from 50Hz to 20kHz and is also tuned to have a clean bass extension down to 40Hz from its design.

The other selling point would be its wireless ultra-low latency of 16ms and uncompressed audio — it’s said that the human ear can detect a latency of around 30ms.

Using the wireless option, the device uses a W+ link along with an X02 transmitter. It is also able to accommodate other options such as Bluetooth 5.2 and cable inputs of 3.5mm mini-jack and 6.3mm balanced TRS inputs. There is an option to use the AIAIAI app to control and customise the sounds of the speakers with the 5-band EQ.
