Apple Recommends For

Hear the music on your iPhone or iPod as if it were a live performance and the artist was in your room.

SoundSphere speaker technology

The Fidelio SoundSphere Speakers have a unique free-floating tweeter design that creates a wider sound-stage and much more natural audio experience than traditional speakers. By centreing the tweeter directly above the woofer, a single sound path is created, delivering a more detailed and natural audio experience.

Exquisite design and finishing

The handcrafted speaker enclosure is designed to maximise the natural acoustic properties of the wood, just like a fine musical instrument. The advanced design and precise shape of the enclosure combine to eliminate distortion and deliver crystal clear, life-like audio.

AirPlay wireless streaming

AirPlay lets you stream your entire iTunes music collection to your Fidelio Soundsphere speakers using your existing Wi-Fi network. It plays wirelessly from iTunes on your computer, iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to any Airplay enabled speaker, and even lets you play your music simultaneously on multiple AirPlay speakers, allowing you to enjoy your music throughout your home.

Free Philips Fidelio app

The Fidelio Soundshpere speakers are compatible with Philips’ free Fidelio App (available as a free download on the iTunes App store). The app offers lots of useful features to expand your device's functionality, including access to over 7000 internet radio stations, sound-setting controls, clock and multiple alarms and a sleep timer.

Highlights

  • Fidelio SoundSphere free-floating tweeter technology for wider sound-stage and incredibly life-like sound
  • Real wood cabinets handcrafted to optimise their acoustic properties and deliver natural, life-like audio

    Wow! Philips lick B&W

    • Written by from GUILDFORD

    Love these speakers to death!! They are beautiful. All my friends who see them and more importantly who listen to them are in awe of them. The sound is fantastic and to have proper stereo after so long listening to just one speaker reminds me of what I have been missing. I was surprised to see the Philips Fidelio badge on these and I have looked at some other Philips stuff, like the Round donut shaped speaker, that looks great too!
    It took me 5 minutes from opening the box to listening to the Hot House Flowers play in my living room!! It felt they were playing in my living room. No problems with Airplay - a real doddle!! Great purchase. Lot of money to spend but worth every penny.     …More

    Look and sound beautiful

    • Written by from Brixton

    I first saw these and was attracted by their size and shape, I was surprised to see they were made by Philips, and not a company like B&W or one of the perceived high end A/V companies.

    I have these speakers now, I took the plunge and bought them to grace my living room. All I can say it they are brilliant. Built from real wood, chrome and other materials, they are absolutely solid. And heavy!

    I set them up, in like 5 minutes and I was off, AirPlay works a treat from my iphone 4 and iPad 3. The sound staging these speakers produce is amazing and the solid bass reproduction is great. I listen to all different genres of music and run these through the mill. Classical, pop, light rock, synth, Disco, they performed gladly, adding a vibrancy and openness I hadn't heard on my previous set of speakers (Bose sound dock).

    As well as sounding well balanced, they are a talking point with my friends as they enter my living room. I would not hesitate in recommending these babies. I've listened to so much more music since having these, just walking around with iPad selecting songs wirelessly.

    They're Great     …More
