The LSR200 works with any TV, not just those sold by Sony. It uses a charging base which attached to the TV and takes about three hours for a full charge. The speaker uses 2.4GHz wireless to communicate with the base (and the TV) and can play the audio simultaneously with the TV’s speakers. It also features a pair of 2W stereo speakers and a center “clear voice” unit tuned for human voice frequencies and has a headphone jack.
The LSR200 weighs 630 grams / 1.4 pounds and Sony says the infrared remote and speaker combo is ”drip-proof”. The device will be available in Japan starting February 22nd for 20,000 yen, which is about $180.
