QUITE POSSIBLY THE PERFECT PORTABLE SOUND SYSTEM

MINIRIG IS A TRUE TALE OF DAVID AND GOLIATH; A SMALL AND FIERCELY INDEPENDENT AUDIO BRAND, INSPIRED BY THE BRISTOL SOUNDSYSTEM CULTURE, TAKING ON, AND BEATING, THE BIGGEST PORTABLE AUDIO BRANDS ON THE MARKET.
Still proudly based in Bristol, Minirig has grown a cult following based largely on wordof-mouth recommendation. Their amazing bluetooth speakers are now in demand around the world thanks to a best-in-class battery life of up to 50 hours and a well-deserved reputation as the loudest speakers of their size on the market. However, the Minirig Bluetooth speaker is not just incredibly loud. An adaptive audio filter ensures that a Minirig delivers a clean sound, free of distortion, whatever the volume.
Minirig bluetooth speakers are designed and hand-built in Britain from high quality components. Their minimal styling looks great, but don’ t be fooled, these speakers are as tough as they come! They are built from strong, anodised aluminium and textured polycarbonate and are water resistant up to an IPX4 rating. This makes Minirigs perfect for travelling, festivals, camping or any outdoor activity.
Respected UK consumer tech site, Techradar, awarded the Minirig 5 stars and Editor’ s Choice as‘ the best portable wireless speaker around’, while influential US site Techaeris said Minirigs were‘ the loudest and smallest speakers I’ ve used … every form of music sounds amazing.' After testing out the Minirig speakers for ourselves we would have to agree – for their size, they deliver an incredible performance on all levels.
Another key area where Minirig stands apart from the competition is in its modular design. It is simple to connect two Minirigs together via bluetooth to create stereo sound. However, it doesn’ t end there.
Minirig have also designed the world’ s smallest, powered portable subwoofer. When connected with two Minirigs this creates a full 2.1 stereo sound, which delivers a huge sound and incredibly powerful bass. This full system would be enough to provide the sound for a large house party, yet is still completely portable, fitting easily into a small rucksack.
