In this case, again, using the Lightning connector or the audio jack seems easier and more reliable, so I doubt a commercial product would use that induction technology. | |
| Mar 13, 2015 at 20:31 | comment | added | Tetsujin | @AndréDaniel Yes - I tested it with my own [rather cheap] induction speakers. (I'm also an audio engineer, so I over-simplified the structure, but the theory is sound [pardon the pun] nonetheless) Induction is a system that will work with any device with a speaker in it - far less hi-tech than bluetooth/wifi, but fine for low-rez repro of an iPod if you're on holiday in Greece etc. I wouldn't use it to check my latest mix ;) | |
| Mar 13, 2015 at 20:25 | comment | added | user56648 | While this is possible in theory, do you actually know any speakers that use this technology ? I really don't see the point of it, as using Bluetooth or just a plain old Lightning connector is way easier and provides better quality. | |
