Unlock a world of musical entertainment.

Designed by audio veteran Tom DeVesto, Solo is much more than just a radio: it is a “smart speaker.” It begins with a nearly half inch-thick MDF wood case housing a ¾” soft dome tweeter and custom 3” long-throw, 4-layer voice coil woofer with oversized magnet. The exterior is expertly crafted using one of several furniture-grade, real wood veneers, or a multi-layer piano gloss finish. The custom Digital Signal Processor (DSP), 30 watts per channel RMS Class D digital amplifier, and Qualcomm aptX audio result in faithful reproduction of your favorite songs.

With the touch of a preset button on the anodized aluminum front panel, Solo will power on and begin playing your favorite saved station. Individual sources can also be saved to the presets, allowing Solo to power on and immediately revert to Spotify Connect, Auxiliary, etc. Moreover, preset playback is independent and not limited to whichever source is playing at the time. Artist and song information as well as album art is beautifully reproduced on Solo’s 2.8” TFT color display, and the artwork can even be expanded to fill the entire display.

Hear your music from anywhere in your home.

Fill your home with music with Solo. Our multi-room feature allows placement of multiple Solos in a single room or in many rooms. Play the same source on all of your Solos, or different sources on different Solos. You can even dedicate one Solo for the left channel and another for the right channel to create a wide wireless soundstage. All of this may seem complicated, but Como Audio’s free app for iOS and Android is designed to take the mystification out of multi-room.

Music on your own terms.

Versatility is another word that can be ascribed to Solo. A true multi-tasker, Solo has a USB input to play back music from a flash drive (which also doubles as a smart phone charger or power for an accessory like Google’s Cast or Amazon’s Dot). It also has an optical input to connect audio from a television and instantly upgrade your TV’s sound, dual alarms, wireless software updates, and an internal switching power supply that automatically detects the correct input voltage. The name “Solo” is indeed a paradox because when you become one with the music, you are never alone.

Control your music anywhere, from anywhere.

Place our models in different rooms, download our free App, and you’ll soon be enjoying music throughout your home. Play different sources in any room or sync all the rooms together to play the same thing. It’s multi-room on your terms.

“A” is for Apple … and Android.

The free Como Control App converts your smart device into a wireless controller for your Como Audio music system. Access functions like power, volume, tuning, presets, sources, EQ, and more. Control freaks, we have you covered.

Dedicated control right out of the box.

We recognize there may be times when a dedicated remote can come in handy, so we include one with every Como Audio music system. Our remote strikes the perfect balance between functionality and simplicity (and it looks cute, too).
