Philips Revives ‘Moving Sound’ Line with Retro Designs and Modern Audio Tech

Philips has announced the full details of its revived Moving Sound audio lineup, blending 1980s-inspired aesthetics with contemporary wireless and smart audio features. The collection, slated for release in Q2 2026, includes two portable Bluetooth speakers, a pair of on-ear headphones, and true wireless earbuds.

The Tube (MS80): A Modern Boombox

The Tube (MS80) is positioned as a contemporary take on the classic boombox. Delivering 140W of output through two 12.7cm woofers and two 19mm tweeters, alongside dual passive radiators for enhanced low-frequency performance, this speaker boasts Bluetooth 6.0 connectivity and Auracast sharing capabilities. It also features an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance and offers up to 24 hours of battery life. A built-in display showcases an animated cassette graphic, paying homage to older cassette players. The MS80 measures 51 x 20 x 16.5cm and includes a carry handle and shoulder strap, priced at €350.

The Roller (MS60) is a smaller, more compact portable speaker offering 60W of power. Its audio system comprises a woofer, tweeter, and passive radiator, utilizing Philips’ “true stereo acoustic architecture” and Moving Sound Bass+ processing. Like the MS80, it supports Bluetooth 6.0, Auracast, IP67 protection, and provides up to 24 hours of battery life. Measuring 38 x 20 x 12cm, the MS60 is priced at €180.
