Como Audio Joins Connected Distribution’s UK Portfolio
Connected Distribution has been appointed as the UK distributor for Como Audio.
Como Audio was founded in 2016 in Boston, USA, by 40-year veteran audio pioneer and Hall of Fame audio designer Tom DeVesto. Formerly the founder of Tivoli Audio, Cambridge SoundWorks and other well-known brands.
Como Audio says it aims "To make a high-quality product that supports the latest technology, is simple to operate and makes it easy to access all of the music content available through one device that would deliver multi-room, true high-fidelity sound, in a compact and beautifully made distinctive design."
The first Como Audio products, the £399 Solo and larger £449 Duetto, were designed to achieve the objective - listening to music from an iPhone, Spotify, Bluetooth, Internet, FM or DAB Radio is as simple as touching one button. Today the range of products also includes the £449 Amico, a portable multi-room audio system for indoor or outdoor use and the £749 Musica – a complete Wi-Fi streaming multi-room audio system with a built-in CD player that also includes Tidal, Deezer, Napster, and Amazon Music.
Recently, Como introduced the £349 Turntable, which connects directly to the Como Audio music systems, a stand-alone hi-fi system, and the £549 Bluetooth Turntable, as its name suggests, connects wirelessly.
Mike Bonnette, Connected Distribution's product director, told StereoNET:
We knew as soon as we heard the Como Audio products and met with Tom DeVesto, that they were something special. The audio quality is exceptional for a product in its class, and the ease of operation makes them one of those rare technologically advanced products that isn't daunting to use.
Connected Distribution has launched a direct to consumer website to undertake sales, shipping free of charge directly from its Cheltenham warehouse. The products will also be available from specially selected retail outlets across the country.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
