## Description

.com          Delivering exceptional sound performance in a compact package, the Philips Fidelio DS8550 Docking Speaker plays music from your iPod, iPhone, or iPad in stunning detail and enables wireless Bluetooth streaming for undocked music playback. Designed for audiophiles, this speaker is engineered with PureDigital technology and a curved profile to provide tight, precise sound, and its built-in rechargeable battery provides up to eight hours of playback on a single charge. Unlock additional features using the complementary Fidelio app, which gives you access to custom alarms, equalizer settings, and more.Fidelio DS8550 Docking Speaker:Obsessed with SoundPureDigital sound processing technology offers audio clarity and balancePrecisely tuned bass pipes provide deep, tight bass reproductionMidrange driver volume matches acoustic requirements for strong, rich bassCurved back reduces internal resonance for precise, natural audio reproductionGet more out of your music, games, and video from your iPod, iPhone, or iPad.  View larger.Bluetooth Streaming for Undocked PlaybackThe DS8550 supports stereo Bluetooth, which means you'll be able to stream your music remotely--even when your device isn't docked to the speaker. Simply establish a Bluetooth connection with your iPad or iPhone and enjoy your music, videos, and games without the inconvenience of docking. You'll be able to operate your device while simultaneously enjoying crisp speaker playback.PureDigital Processing for Unsurpassed FidelityUnlike traditional iPod docks, the DS8550 processes sound digitally. The result is far clearer audio performance. Using PureDigital, the DS8550 collects the digital output of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad and processes it at each stage of the circuit, resulting in a much higher signal-to-noise ratio. This allows the speaker to reproduce the audio files on your mobile device with greater clarity and fidelity.Optimized Drivers Add PrecisionIf a speaker's drivers aren't optimized to match its acoustic requirements, it will produce distorted sound. Fortunately, the DS8550's drivers have been fine-tuned to provide clear performance at all frequencies. High tones are precise and distinct, while low tones come out deep and tight. Bass reproduction is particularly rich: the mid- and low-range drivers have been specially engineered to create crisp, penetrating audio reproduction.Curved Design Creates an Ideal Acoustic EnvironmentChic and elegant, the DS8550's curved design is not only an eye catcher--it's also an effective structure for acoustics. The concave architecture of the speaker creates an ideal acoustic environment for your music: it dramatically reduces distortion and resonance, resulting in more precise and natural sound.iPad stand included.

What's more, it works even when most protective cases are on--just dock your iPhone or iPod as is for fuss-free enjoyment of your music.Compatible with iPad, iPods, and iPhonesThe DS8550 is compatible with iPad and iPad 2 and includes an iPad stand.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does anyone know if the blue tooth works for android as well? I am assuming it will but I dock with ipod but also use android.**
A: It should.  I have connected a Nexus 10, Galaxy Note 8, Motorola Droid M, Galaxy Nexus and Galaxy S4 via bluetooth (sorry for the silly list, but I hate saying "yes you can connect any android device to it" :)

**Q: Does this use a Lithium Ion battery?**
A: Unsure but battery life is generally about 3 hours before having to plug in once again.

**Q: Can you dock an android?**
A: I only use a classic ipod, which needs a 30 pin connector. My understanding is that an Android is a device with this kind of operator system. If your android device does not have a 30 pin connector then you cannot connect it to the dock. You can still connect and android device via the auxiliary input of the Fidelio and the headset output of your device or you can still use it if you android device has bluetooth capability.

**Q: Does this work with the new ipad air?**
A: I have not tried it with the iPad Air but the Retina Display iPad works fine. I believe it works with any Bluetooth equipped device.  I must add that the sound is the best I've heard on any wireless speaker of its size.
