Octoid & Quadoid
Coming soonOctoid & Quadoid loudspeakers
Broadband containment in a compact form — launching mid-2027.
Loudspeakers that control where sound does not go. Quadoid radiation confines sound to a quarter-sphere, Octoid to an eighth, across the full audio band. We expect to launch in mid-2027.
- Quadoid — sound confined to one quarter of a sphere
- Octoid — sound confined to one eighth of a sphere
- Localised, personal listening without headphones
- Launch expected mid-2027

Octoid and Quadoid loudspeakers are designed to control where sound does not go. They provide broadband, three-dimensional containment in a compact form, achieving spatial control that conventional omnidirectional, directional or cardioid patterns cannot match across the full frequency range.
The technology is not yet launched; we expect to bring it to market in mid-2027. Final specifications and photography will be published here as launch approaches. Read the technology preview and register interest to be notified.
