Guess what, it's now slotted into a production run. On June 20th, our Japanese brethren with ¥1,000,000 (about €6,500 / $10,000) to burn can take home the 6-foot tall, 50- to 20,000Hz trembling monument to music now known as the Sautina, aka NSA-PF1.<SPAN></SPAN> Inputs include analog RCA and digital coax and optical TOS supporting up to 24bit/96kHz linear PCM (stereo). As to the sound quality from the 13-cm subwoofer, 7-cm mid, and organic glass tweeter... who cares? This is all about making a visual statement which you'll communicate loud and clear, poser.<BR /><DIV class="postgallery"><H3><STRONG>Gallery: <A href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-sautina-glass-speaker-gets-a-production-nod/">Sony's Sautina glass speaker gets a production nod</A></STRONG></H3><UL><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;"><A href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-sautina-glass-speaker-gets-a-production-nod/827916/"><IMG title="" alt="" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.engadget.com/media/2008/05/sautina_colors_00_thumbnail.jpg" /></A></LI><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;"><A href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-sautina-glass-speaker-gets-a-production-nod/827917/"><IMG title="" alt="" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.engadget.com/media/2008/05/sony1_sautina_01_thumbnail.jpg" /></A></LI><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;"><A href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-sautina-glass-speaker-gets-a-production-nod/827919/"><IMG title="" alt="" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.engadget.com/media/2008/05/sony1_sautina_02_thumbnail.jpg" /></A></LI><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;"><A href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-sautina-glass-speaker-gets-a-production-nod/827918/"><IMG title="" alt="" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.engadget.com/media/2008/05/sony1_sautina_03_thumbnail.jpg" /></A></LI><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;"><A href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/sonys-sautina-glass-speaker-gets-a-production-nod/827923/"><IMG title="" alt="" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.engadget.com/media/2008/05/sony1_sautina_04_thumbnail.jpg" /></A></LI></UL></DIV><BR />[Via <A href="http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?hl=en&u=http://www.watch.impress.co.jp/av/docs/20080528/sony1.htm">Impress</A>] <DIV></DIV></DIV><DIV class="postmeta"><UL class="postnav"><LI class="readlink"><A href="http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?hl=en&u=http://www.sony.jp/CorporateCruise/Press/200805/08-0528/" class="related-link"><STRONG>Read</STRONG></A> <A title="Open in a new window" and="" target="_blank" class="icon" href="http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?hl=en&u=http://www.sony.jp/CorporateCruise/Press/200805/08-0528/"><IMG src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.engadget.com/media/icon-external.gif" /></A></LI><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;"><A title="Permanent link to this entry" rel="bookmark" href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/28/sonys-sautina-glass-speaker-gets-a-production-nod/">Permalink</A></LI><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;"><A title="Send this entry to a friend via email" href="http://www.engadget.com/forward/1207658/">Email this</A></LI><LI class="commentslink"><A title="View reader comments on this entry" href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/28/sonys-sautina-glass-speaker-gets-a-production-nod/#comments">18 Comments</A></LI></UL><P class="filed-under"><STRONG>Filed under:</STRONG> <A href="http://www.engadget.com/category/homeentertainment/">Home Entertainment</A></P><P class="posttags"><STRONG>Tags:</STRONG> <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/breaking+news/">breaking news</A>, <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/BreakingNews/">BreakingNews</A>, <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/glass/">glass</A>, <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/sautina/">sautina</A>, <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/sony/">sony</A>, <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/speaker/">speaker</A></P></DIV><DIV class="quigoads"><FORM target="" action="" method="get" name="qas_dfp_frm" id="qas_dfp_frm"><INPUT type="hidden" value="" name="ie52_mac_only" /></FORM></DIV></DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/9AB3E84F-14DC-43D6-8A48-F9C77FE5C09A/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
