- Primare Allt-in-Ett combines speaker, streamer and amplifier
- Designed as an all-in-one audio device, including touchscreen for streaming
- Retails for $3,500 / £2,700 (around AU$5,200)
If you don’t like looking at the list of speaker specifications and trying to figure out if it has the connection or port you need, here’s a new gadget for you. The newly unveiled Primare Allt-i-Ett has pretty much every modern connection you could want from one of the best wireless speakers.
Allt-i-Ett – a phrase that apparently translates to “all-in-one” in both Norwegian and Swedish – is no budget Bluetooth speaker. It costs $3,500 / £2,700 (about AU$5,200) and takes up an entire cabinet top, as you can see in the image above – it’s very similar to the five-star Cambridge Audio Evo One, but with a good-sized touchscreen to make it even more versatile.
For that price, you get a speaker, streamer and amplifier in one.
Let’s look at the first: a speaker. The Allt-in-Ett has six woofers, two midrange drivers and two tweeters with waveguides and emits 300W of power. It really is an all-in-one speaker setup, although you can also hook up a subwoofer.
Stay connected
As mentioned, connectivity is the real draw. Primare has allowed for – deep breathing – USB-A, coaxial, optical, HDMI eARC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, FM and DAB+ radio and 3.5 mm input – as well as support for AirPlay 2 Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect and Qobuz Connect. Oh, and there’s input from RCA stereo or a phono preamp if you want to hook up one of the top turntables.
In short, you can connect (wired or wireless) almost any other device to have the All-in-Ett play your music. HDMI eARC also points to this being capable of acting as one of the best soundbars out there, despite not being the primary feature – although that’s perhaps where you’d appreciate the sub-output option the most.
To try to manage some of these connections, Allt-i-Ett has a number of control options. You can use a phone app, a remote control or a touch screen built into the body. You can use them to manage a few extra features: an 11-band equalizer, automatic room calibration, 3D sound, and different location modes.
Despite the high price, the Primare Allt-in-Ett seems to be designed for people who want a room-wide sound setup but can’t fit (or simply don’t want) a multi-unit setup. The speaker allows you to control different media sources in one model without having to buy a separate amplifier, adapter or receiver – we hope to test it out to see if it can best the Cambridge Audio Evo One. After all, it ‘only’ costs about $1,599…
