In this episode Steven and Shaun get all nostalgic about their love of audio and long for the days of physical media rather than digital downloads.
However they don’t stay nostalgic for long as they dive into the crazy world of bluetooth speakers, multiroom systems and smart wireless headphones.
Steven talks about the new Bose Soundlink speakers and also shares that he is due to review a pair of the new Sonos Ace headphones, which he admits should be interesting considering the recent developments at the company which led to an inaccessible app being born affecting many blind people - more on that to come on the next Double Tap.
