BUILD

The Chant Sport is made of natural wood fiber and recycled PP composite. Even though some don’t think about things such as this it is nice to hear that it is happening out there and well it gives you a good feeling. Standing 6.5″ tall the design was based around being able to be the perfect fit for a water bottle holder or cup holder. The speaker itself doesn’t start till 4.5″ up from the bottom giving you that clearance to put in the cup holder yet not have the sound muffled from being buried in. You’ll see the HoM logo right on the front of the speaker. The speaker is a grey/black and when you look closely you can see the wood fibers in it, quite the stylish look. Around the rear of the speaker you’ll see a tab for the clip that is included as well as a rubber tab which protects the audio in and micro-USB charging ports. The top of the speaker is where you’ll find all the controls. Four buttons which control the volume, Bluetooth function and turning on and off the device. There is also a microphone below the power button.The overall build of the Chant Sport is rated at IP67, don’t worry we know to most of you that means nothing and so we’ve included a chart for IP-Ratings.See now that you have an understanding of what an IP-rating is you can see that as far as an audio device this is pretty awesome at IP67.
