John Lewis launches world's first "bath audio system" The new Sound Wave system from Kaldewei allows bathers to literally immerse themselves in their favourite songs. The bath itself acts as the sound box to deliver a high quality sound, which is enhanced and amplified when the tub is filled with water. As well as listening to their music, bathers can actually feel the vibration of the sound waves moving through the water as they relax. The bath audio system can be controlled from any Bluetooth-enabled device - such as a tablet, smartphone or laptop - and up to eight devices can be paired with the system. "With people leading such busy lifestyles it's important to have time to relax and reflect upon the day, and where better place to do this than in the bathroom," said Angela Ortmann-Torbett, sales director for West Europe, at Kaldewei. Our new Sound Wave system was designed with this in mind, so people can choose a playlist which fits their mood. The Sound Wave system costs £587 and can be "retro-fitted" to any existing of Kaldewei's 3.5mm steel enamel bath tubs. It is available exclusively on the high street at John Lewis" flagship Oxford Street shop. Sound Wave is one of a number of innovations on show at John Lewis" newly-opened 'Fitted Studio' at its Oxford Street shop. The 6,500 sq ft studio designs and fits kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms and personalised wine cellars, and includes 55 different displays which span across a wide range of price points.

Kaldewei's Sound Wave system is a great example, it is a subtle way to bring a unique element to any bathroom.
