Just reach out, spin the dial and Cone plays what it thinks is the perfect sound for the moment. If it's right, let it play. If not, just spin the dial again. Simple. And if you know exactly what you want to hear, just touch the button and ask. Cone learns what when and how you listen - noting that what you like on a Monday morning is likely different to a Friday night or Sunday lunch, so the more you use it, the better it gets.

Since joining Wise, Duncan has continued their mission of simplifying music listening for everyone. Duncan and their team have designed a number of products that are both simple and beautiful, with the goal of making everyone's life easier.

Duncan Lamb has a MA in Industrial Design from Taideteollinen korkeakoulu - Konstindustriella högskolan and a BA in Product Design from [Sheffield Hallam University](/org/sheffield-hallam-university).
