Creative, global provider of digital entertainment products, has brought to market an entirely new category of portable speakers with the introduction of the TravelSound 500, which attaches directly to a notebook PC screen.
Now anywhere a notebook PC is in use, the TravelSound 500 speaker system can provide MP3 and DVD movie playback with audio quality far superior to integrated notebook audio. Ideal for business or leisure travel, the lightweight, portable TravelSound Notebook 500 speaker system is now available in SA through Annex Distribution.
"Creative pioneered several speaker categories, including travel speakers with the TravelSound brand, which today commands the number one market share," said Mala Sharma, director of product marketing for Creative Labs, Inc. "Now we have introduced an entirely new category by introducing a speaker system that attaches right to the notebook PC screen. With the TravelSound Notebook 500, any notebook PC can become a full entertainment system, for great-sounding MP3 music and DVD movies."
Designed to match notebook screens and to eliminate desktop clutter, the sleek, compact TravelSound Notebook 500 weighs 243 grams. The system`s eight-inch length provides excellent audio separation between left and right channels. The TravelSound Notebook 500 features titanium microdrivers for superior audio quality and clarity, when compared to integrated notebook PC audio or speakers with aluminium or paper drivers.
The TravelSound Notebook 500 can be powered through any of three sources: USB cable, universal power adapter, or triple-A batteries, for optimal flexibility for home or travel. A battery-powered TravelSound Notebook 500 offers an industry-leading playback time of more than 30 hours.
"The local mobile market has been hungry for enhanced sound and improved levels of digital performance. This versatile product enhances an ordinary notebook and really empowers the user with more value for money," says Chris Anderson, Creative product manager at Annex Distribution.
