Looks good and gets great reviews indeed, but weighs a lot.

It weighs a lot, but offers a 440watt amplifier.

Doesn’t sound like a Bluetooth speaker.

This more than fills the room in our 17’ vaulted ceilings and is a really good sound.

My beef with most Bluetooth speakers is they sound like Bluetooth speakers.

The Peachtree is the best I’ve heard! I wouldn’t be without mine.

Yes, for such purposes, it seems ideal.
I looked on Amazon Germany and UK, but they don't sell it over here.
Well, I'll stay with my B&W Zeppelin in my practice, it's not bad either.

I just finished setting up my daughter in an apartment for grad school a few months ago, and then for her birthday a few weeks ago, I got her a Peachtree Deepblue Sky. It is a newer version of the Deepblue 2 and works with Wifi. I have slowly indoctrinated my daughter into the world of music, hifi, etc., as I’ve known it as she’s grown up giving her Westone IEMs, hand me down Audeze headphones, and when she wanted to buy music that I also liked, I bought it for her (and me)(from HD Tracks, etc)- gotta teach the younger generation, you know, in a way they will accept and understand.

Anyway, she knows music and has a very good ear (she is also an accomplished pianist). She tells me the sound is spectacular in her apartment and she gets comments from visiting friends along the same lines. She streams Hi-Def and Redbook, as well as Apple Music (she is 25, you can only do so much) on wifi from a 500GB USB SSD I got her for her MPB. I believe the Deepblue Sky is the first in the series that will stream via wifi- and from what I’ve heard when visiting— sounds really good.

The DeepBlue Sky is an upgrade of the DeepBlue 3. Right now I think Peachtree has a special so that they are the same price.

I’m sure it’s even better than the Deepblue2.

Seriously, I replaced a 2nd system which was an integrated amp, B&W 805s with Kimber Kable speaker cables with the Deepblue2.

I had always been disappointed by the lean bass of the B&W 805s (at least in my room). After I got the Deepblue2, I sold the 805s and never looked back.

It’s a very, very good Bluetooth speaker. Great background music, good bass, very well made.

I’d love to get my hands on the new one, but I don’t have any more rooms that need one .
