Fender’s new Bluetooth speakers look just like mini guitar amps
The Fender name is legendary in the world of music for its guitars and amplifiers. But now the company is setting its sights on a new chunk of the music industry — Bluetooth speakers. The company is launching two speakers: the larger $349.99 Monterey, and the smaller, portable $199.99 Newport.
The $349.99 Monterey is the more powerful of the two new speakers, which is logical, given that it’s meant to stay put on a shelf or cabinet unlike the portable Newport. It features four drivers — two woofers and two tweeters — for 120W of power, both RCA and 3.5mm aux jacks for hooking up audio sources, and comes in a wooden enclosure.
