A revival of Harman Kardon Nova from 2014 - spherical design with a rear passive driver. I own a pair that still works great. This one is same design except HK Nova is with two in line drivers not coax. HK Nova has Optical in, Aux and Bluetooth AND it is bi-amped with 20W amp powering each driver so 4 x 20W. The controls are on one speaker and are lit when powered on. For volume control you run your finger up and down the top of the speaker and LEDs light up showing the level of volume. Input button changes color as per the input chosen. Powered by a separate brick.
Great suggestion bought mine and its def premium. i got mine hooked up to BTW6 , sending 24bit 96 , and it sounds great, the cleaner the audio the cleaner the sound is reproduced. Ive played music with bad mixes sounding okay, and music with great mixes sounding amazing and very detailed, like a mini home theatre set up with great center imagin and 3d, but it did take me 3 days to understand how to make sure all settings on pc / app were set to send best sound signals ( otherwise it all sounds low q cuz of poor signal selections ) . Even youtube hardstyle mixes ( alexis grace ep 8 or any hifi source ) with heavy bass pounding away >:D .
Let me bring you bad news, the Pebble Nova only supports the SBC Bluetooth codec, which is limited to a bit depth of 16bit and 48kHz sample rate. Using BTW6 to stream music to the Pebble Nova does not make any difference in sound quality. The only way to get the best sound quality is by USB connecting it to an external DAC, for example the Sound Blaster X5.

Been Waiting! For a review.
Soon
What I am curious about is if they are like the Pebble X where you need to plug in both usb c cables to get full power. It looks like it does.
Yes USB-C
