Compact and powerful sound
Thanks to its weatherproof housing and power, our portable design speaker P6 BT shines as a portable outdoor Bluetooth speaker and also blends unobtrusively into any interior style indoors with its elegant design.
SOUND
Equipped with two speaker drivers (identical to the P9) and an upward-firing upfire subwoofer, the Escape P6 BT behind its compact size impressive sound. Thanks to its low weight of 7.5 kg, it is even easier to get to where good sound in a handsome design is needed. The built-in 24-bit DSP provides powerful and impressively room-filling sound. The P6 BT can also be paired with a second identical model to deliver true stereo sound.
DESIGNED
The carefully crafted design - made from premium materials - is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also offers protection against splashing water thanks to its IPX4 certification. An elegant polyester yarn mesh gives the P6 BT a pleasant and natural look while being robust at the same time. Thanks to the stylish powder-coated aluminum handle, the P6 BT is easy to carry. So: where do you want to go?

Our take on the brand
Music streaming across rooms
From the garden through the living room, into the kitchen and back again - and never miss a second of your favorite song. No problem with the Escape P6 AIR.
SOUND
By integrating it into an existing network, you can use modern and cross-room WiFi streaming without any further effort. Using Apple AirPlay, Google Cast, Spotify Connect or Roon, you can play your playlist simultaneously on other compatible music systems, e.g. sonoro MEISTERSTÜCK (Gen.2) or MAESTRO Quantum . But even without WiFi available, the elegantly designed speaker will not remain silent. No matter where you take it, thanks to Bluetooth 5.0, nothing stands in the way of convenient music enjoyment.
DESIGNED
The sophisticated design of the portable Bluetooth speaker - made from high-quality materials - is not only visually appealing, but is also protected against splashing water with its IPX4 certification. An attractive mesh made of polyester yarn gives the P6 AIR a pleasant and natural look while also offering robustness. The elegant powder-coated aluminum handle makes the device easy to carry.
Product Strengths
- Good sound quality, especially in stereo pairing, makes it enjoyable for various music genres
- Portable, WiFi-enabled speaker

Takeaway: The Escape P6 Air is a great-sounding, mobile outdoor speaker that works well with Roon. It is perfect for enjoying good-quality music outside, especially when used as a stereo pair.
