Its peculiar U-shape and its placement make it one of the strangest loudspeakers that you can find in stores.

Sony’s proposal seeks to make life easier for those users who work from home and want the greatest possible comfort, without being forced to wear headphones over their ears, since in the end these models produce a lot of fatigue and do not allow you to work comfortably (for much that many models isolate the sound).
