Pantheon Obsidian Smart Speaker

High-End Acoustics

The Obsidian speaker boasts a handcrafted, high-density resin cabinet and delivers high sound quality through its state-of-the-art acoustic engineering and audio system. It streams high­resolution audio thanks to its internal woofer with a high-excursion design and two silk-dome tweeters.

Obsidian allows connectivity via AirPlay 2, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or an auxiliary cable for music playback via a user’s favorite streaming service, including Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, Pandora, iHeart Radio, Tuneln Radio, and many more. In addition, Obsidian can connect to a variety of other devices, including other Obsidians, to offer an immersive audio environment. While the built-in Alexa functionality lets users manage the system and their smart home automation integrations through voice commands, the accompanying Pantheone app (iOS and Android) enables users to control the system through their phones or tablets for volume or track skipping and to access various functions such as sleep mode and multi-room player. Updates to the Pantheone I and Obsidian speakers can be done through OTA (Over­ the-Air). The easy-to-use front speaker control panel enables direct control at the user’s fingertips.
