Cambridge Audio Minx Air 100 and Minx Air 200 review: Standout AirPlay/Bluetooth speakers

Cambridge Audio is the latest higher-end audio vendor to enter the market for compact, wireless speaker systems. The company recently introduced two versatile systems in its Minx line: the Minx Air 200 and the Minx Air 100. Each stands out from the crowd in part by offering dual wireless options: AirPlay and Bluetooth.

The $600 Minx Air 200 takes up some space: It?s 17.7 inches wide, 8.7 inches tall, and just under 7 inches deep. It?s also hefty at 11.2 pounds. Along the top of the speaker are two groupings of buttons. The group on the left includes controls for pairing, stopping playback, adjusting volume, and toggling power; the row on the right offers buttons for Internet-radio presets (more on these in a bit).

On the back of the 200, you?ll find a handle cutout, a connector for the included power adapter, an ethernet port, both RCA and 3.5mm (1/8-inch) auxiliary-audio inputs, a Micro-USB port (for service and potential firmware upgrades), and a dial for adjusting the bass level.

Under the front speaker grille, the 200 hosts a pair of 2.25-inch Balanced Mode Radiator drivers and a 6.5-inch lower-frequency driver. Inside is an amplification system boasting 200 Watts of total power (hence the unit?s numerical name).
