Product Information
If you’re looking for a portable party speaker that has a style all of its own, set the vibe with the Philips The Tube.
The reinvention of an ‘80s icon
Inspired by the ‘80s Moving Sound boom-boxes but with all the latest in wireless audio and convenience, the Philips The Tube delivers immersive sound in unique style: it’s a real party pleaser. Powerful stereo sound and robust construction make this the ideal outdoor speaker, with the 24-hour battery life plenty for a weekend away. Connect by Bluetooth or USB-C, or stream multiple speakers via Auracast, The Tube’s versatility is lightyears ahead of its spiritual predecessor.
Mighty, stereo sound
As the largest Moving Sound speaker, The Tube is a beats beast. Stereo 5” speakers work in conjunction with dedicated tweeters and an active crossover to deliver sound with power and passion. The side-firing speakers give a broader, more spacious sound that’s perfect for larger rooms and outdoor spaces. Twin passive radiators further deepen the bass, helping to deliver a richly-balanced sound at all volumes.
Multi-point Bluetooth and USB-C connectivity
Compatible with the latest Bluetooth 6.0 tech, The Tube links seamlessly and efficiently with two devices at once – perfect if you need to switch between a phone and laptop. You can also connect a device via USB-C, which is ideal for simultaneous device playback and charging.
Connect with the Philips Entertainment app
The Philips Entertainment app takes this retro Philips speaker to the next level of versatility. Use the app to select predefined audio settings or fine-tune the sound via the equaliser. You can also use the app to select onscreen animations or wallpaper, manage connected devices, update firmware and more.
Multi-speaker streaming with Auracast
Compatible with Auracast, The Tube lets you stream to multiple speakers at once. Perfect for letting others hear your playlist or gaming with friends, Auracast lets you share the fun.
24-hour party ready
Supplied with a removable lithium-ion battery, The Tube delivers up to 24 hours of playtime. A full recharge takes around three hours, although a quick 15 minute charge gets you up to 3.5 hours of play. If your phone’s running low, connect via USB-C and use The Tube’s built-in power bank to keep the tunes flowing.
Built tough
Rated to IP67 standards, The Tube is tough enough to cope with just about any scenario. Dustproof and waterproof, it easily stands up to muddy festivals, beach trips, pool parties and more. The stylish handle makes it easy to just grab and go, or sling it over your shoulder using the supplied carry strap.
Light up the party
With its LED ambient lighting, The Tube soon sets the vibe. Party in turquoise and pink or simply relax to a soft white glow. The LED light rings pulse to the beat, with Neon Stage, Crowd Pulse, Arcade Glitch and Bassline modes for visuals that match the tunes.
Colour display with retro animations
Switching between reeling cassette, spinning vinyl and equaliser bar animations, even the colour display knows how to party. The touchscreen can also be used to access speaker functions and can be brightened or dimmed via physical buttons or the app.
For mighty sound, wherever you venture, take The Tube.
