i untie Pendlebury from cnet.com and this is a review of the forest ps1 speaker in 2013 there's been a rash of new wireless audio products hitting the market from Samsung to Bose - sound engineering company DTS play fired by DTS is the latest attempt at a wireless audio standard designed to compete with current Kings Sonos and Apple AirPlay forces PS Fon speaker is one of the first products to be released with the standard though more are promised for CES 2014 the PS 1 is a stereo speaker which resembles an iPod dock with its large rubber holster but it won't actually dock with anything not without running a separate USB cable around the back unfortunately when playing with it though it does feel a little cheap in its construction this speaker supports both the play face standard and Bluetooth and there are dedicated buttons for each on the front of the unit while bluetooth connection is the most straightforward connecting via play fire requires the forest app which isn't as easy to use or configure as so Knossos the app is available for iOS and Android but they don't yet have the same functionality for example you can't currently stream from an ass or other computer with the iOS app just the phone itself and Pandora while DTS has promised a lot of updates including high resolution support a PC app and more streaming services it's pretty much limited to standard mp3 and flack and Pandora playback performance though is its biggest problem getting a solid connection proved a hurdle with occasional dropouts even over Wi-Fi and the app would lose the dock completely and need to reconnect in comparison our Sonos play:1 didn't have these problems and remained solid throughout sound quality was pretty average - with a very woolly mid-range e-type sound and the play one blew it out of the water in both bass response and fine detail given that these two speakers are the same price of $200 and the sonar system is so good in comparison I can't yet recommend to the forest PS one however I do look forward to seeing what improvements DTS can make with this system as it still has a lot of promise it just needs to be more reliable this has been typing a brief for cnet.com
