Introduction

TRETTITRE is an emerging speaker and amplifier company based out of Shenzhen, China that is trying to sound exotic to try and get people to dismiss initial biases against Chinese audio brands. A cursory look at the company's website reveals it is fairly new and prides itself on craftsmanship in addition to pure audio experiences. Yet it mentions how its engineers and designers have been developing product concepts for nearly 10 years to where its current product line has been borne out of planning that has taken months to years at times. I had never heard of the brand until one of Linsoul's co-founders mentioned how they had come across its speakers and were so impressed that they immediately decided to start listing Trettitre products. With such a positive recommendation from someone who has access to anything and everything in the audio space, I was certainly intrigued and agreed to cover the brand. I am just glad this is a written review where I do not need to worry about how that word is pronounced, which incidentally happens to be Swedish for "33".


Today we take a look at the TRETTITRE TreSound1—not the best name but who cares when one look at the product will just have you pondering what it even is? This is a single speaker unit that takes inspiration from the Nordic mountains that it got the wood from for its chassis. There's quite a lot going on here and it is much bigger than you think it is too. Consider the TreSound1 as a Bluetooth speaker for your living room thus, given it's a statement piece as much as it is for impromptu parties. The TreSound1 debuted via the crowdfunding route last year and originally came in three color options—Snow Peak, Majestic Mountain, Green Hill—seen above, and there's a new Flame Red finish released recently too. There's certainly a lot to talk about in our review and thanks to Linsoul again for providing a review sample to TechPowerUp as we begin with a look at the product specifications in the table below.
