Our Best sound quality to date
We know when audio is your only interface sound quality matters. Whilst proud of our best-in-class sound quality we are always looking to improve. We have upgraded both players to the latest generation of digital amplifiers providing clearer sound, less distortion and a louder, clearer head-phone output. We have also improved the mechanical stability and isolation of the speaker cabinets.
Kings USB C Charger We believe our new USB C power supply to be the world’s first designed specifically for visually impaired users. After an extensive consultation period we have designed it with a unique tactile feel, 3D raised logo, high contrast colours and a strengthened braided nylon cable. USB C is a universal standard and will prevent ‘wrong’ chargers being used and potentially damaging equipment”

Brilliant
This certainly does what it says it does. My husband (almost totally blind) finds it relatively easy to use and is very happy with it.

the sound quality from this little gem is amazing
We bought this device, so that our mother, who is 101 years old with very limited vision, could use it to play MP3 audio books.
All the controls can be operated by feel, and even the charging plug can be inserted either way round.
It has been very well designed.
I must also mention the sound quality. It can also be used as a bluetooth speaker, and the sound quality from this little gem is amazing, so I would highly recommend it for both visually impaired people, but also as a great piece of sound kit.

Overall excellent
Excellent machine, easy to use by blind elderly women, controls are easy to use . It smaller than the previous machines but sound quality is excellent. Only problem which is similar to previous machines, charge point where cable is attached is awkward to locate for blind , we now leave cable connected and switch off at socket. Overall excellent.

Great sound and easy to use
Bought it for my grandpa and he loves it! I’ve put in some audiobook and he listens to them everyday with no problem in operating by himself. Would be great if it comes with radio function as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars brilliant design, quality build.
Partially sighted, blind or just don't want to have to turn the lights on because your listening in bed and don't want to wake up more than you have to - this machine is perfect. well made and well designed, the high contrast buttons are as simple to use as possible, by sight or touch. The rechargeable battery is replaceable and easy to access. I don't think there's anything they haven't thought of. This product deserves 5 stars more than any I have ever given in a review before because it's designer has set out to improve the quality of life for partially sighted people and they have hit the nail on the head. High Five!

Perfect player & speaker
The Sonic is a big improvement on my 5 year old Sovereign. Sound quality is great, much better on headphones than my old one. New charger is a big improvement. Build quality is excellent, highly recommended!
