Design 145g70
O Echo Studio is an Smart Speaker with robust, elegant and compact design (compared to other speakers with similar sound quality), with dimensions of 175.2 mm x 205.7 mm. O Smart Speakr has the entire body covered with fabric and with a resistant material, a wider luminous ring than the other models in the line Echo.
At the top, there are seven microphone capture holes that are positioned at the end of the Echo Studio and results in high sensitivity when talking to Alexa, picking up even the quietest voices. Unlike other models in the line Echo, the volume control buttons, microphone mute and action button, are grouped in a single “row”. That layout was created to make room for a 2″ midrange speaker fixed in the center of the Echo Studio.
the side of Echo Studio It is constructed of a kind of firm acrylic and coated with a fabric screen that gives an all and elegant look to the Smart Speaker. on the back of Echo There is a socket for connecting the power adapter, a micro USB input and a 3.5mm/mini-optical audio output.
At the bottom of the Smart Speaker There's a purpose-built opening to maximize the bass output generated by the powerful 5.25″ woofer. to keep the Echo Studio stable on the surface, its base is built with rubberized material to keep it in place and not literally jumping around the house with the sound power.

O Echo Studio comes equipped with a powerful five-speaker system, which are:
- Three midrange speakers of 51 mm (2″), which generate dynamic midrange sounds and give greater sound quality in the reproduction of sound elements of musical instruments and voice. Speakers are positioned at the top, left and right of the Echo Studio;
- a tweeter 25 mm (1″), which produces great sound quality in high-pitched sounds. The speaker is fixed in the center of the Echo Studio.
- a woofer 133 mm (5.25″), a mid-bass that reproduces sounds with low and mid-bass frequencies, which generates a sound with powerful bass and a firm and dry beat. The speaker is positioned at the bottom of the Echo Studio and there's an opening to maximize the airflow and output of that bass.
We tested the sound system to the limit with demanding musical styles such as electronica and heavy metal, and the result was a clean, powerful sound with deep bass. O Smart Speaker has the ability to 330W maximum power and its sound system brings a expansive and spatial sound, with the real feeling of immersion in the music or special effects of a movie.
O Echo Studio comes with one DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) 24-bit, which has the purpose of converting the digital sound waves of a song and transforming it into analog audio, maintaining maximum music quality and reducing noise to almost zero (ing that this also depends on the recording quality of the song). Amazon still produced this Smart Speaker with a very important component: the power amplifier with 100 kHz of bandwidth, which plays an important role because it is with it that the electrical signal is expanded to the maximum and with this there is no loss of power.
In addition to having tested the sound power of the Echo Studio, it was also evaluated if the audio really had the ability to be immersive as promised. THE Smart Speaker was used in the living room as a home theater and could easily replace the conventional device, in addition to being compact and fitting anywhere in the room (which solves that problem of placing several speakers in a small apartment room).
When watching a movie on Amazon Prime Video was clear as technology Dolby Atmos e Dolby 5.1, along with the five directional speakers, bring that depth and breadth when watching content compatible with 3D audio. Unfortunately, when listening to music, this immersion was not used as well as it should, because there are not so many songs produced with this technology.
The technology Dolby makes all the difference in sound immersion proposal and the 360 degree sound effect is even clearer when playing special effects like explosions and gunshots, as we experienced when playing the classic The Last of Us on Playstation 4.
Furthermore, the Echo Studio will automatically better define the acoustics for your environment, whether in the bedroom, living room, kitchen or outdoors, in addition to the audio reproduction being adjusted according to the sound performed by the Alexa on your favorite platform be Amazon Music, Spotify, Deezer, Apple Music, Among others.

Connectivity 5h1q1v
O Echo Studio It s 2GHz and 5GHz bandwidth Wi-Fi, Bluetooth connection, a micro USB input (no functionality for the ) and a 3.5mm/mini-optical audio output.

Bluetooth connectivity is a point to be discussed as well, because when connected to the TV there was no delay in the audio in relation to the image, common in some speakers from the market.
