Audio brand Harman Kardon has introduced its SoundSticks 4 speaker in India, priced at ₹25,999. The speaker is already available from across leading retail stores in India and on the company's India website. The new SoundSticks 4 plays on the same transparent design as what we have seen in SoundSticks 3 and previous models. There are two satellite speakers and a powerful subwoofer cover with what the company calls as ‘with an inner rippled surface' design.

Talking about unique-looking speakers, Sony this year introduced a 360 Reality Audio speaker that looks like a giant shaving machine. In case you didn't know, the 360 Reality Audio is Sony's spatial audio technology that aims to replicate live music by placing different sounds and vocals in a room around you. During the announcement, Sony said that it plans to release these speakers named SRS-RA5000 and SRS-RA3000 sometime in ‘Spring' this year.
