JBL(R) Gets Its Game On With JBL On Tour Plus(TM); JBL On Tour Plus Brings Its ''A'' Game to On-the-Go Electronics

Posted on: Tuesday, 9 May 2006, 09:02 CDT

JBL, a leading provider of award-winning audio products for the computer industry, today announced the introduction of JBL On Tour Plus, a sleek, portable-audio system and accessories pack designed to be the perfect companion to gamers, road warriors and music lovers alike. Weighing in at less than a pound -- and small enough to fit in a briefcase, backpack or purse -- JBL On Tour Plus comes with everything needed to enjoy rich sound, anywhere in the world, from on-the-go electronics.

JBL On Tour Plus enables consumers to share their favorite video games, music or movies by providing them with high-fidelity sound at the office, in the home, or on the road. Innovative design combined with advanced sound technology produces the highest quality sound from a stylish, pocket-sized system. With six watts of total power, this portable speaker system utilizes two aluminum-domed Odyssey(R) transducers that provide rich, full frequency response at any sound level. Additionally, the included game-console bracket allows users to neatly and easily attach digital devices such as the Sony(R) PSP.(TM)

"Consumers are looking for ways to get more value out of the multitude of portable electronics they've purchased in recent years. We've recognized that need, and have built a compact, portable and chic speaker system for use with on-the-go electronics that would benefit from more powerful audio," said Fred Faulkner, JBL Multimedia's vice president of sales and marketing. "JBL On Tour Plus was designed with the gadget-lover-on-the-go in mind; it offers high-fidelity sound in a small, portable package."

Truly portable, the JBL On Tour Plus is powered by either four AAA batteries or universal AC power, and comes with a rugged zippered nylon carry case that holds and protects JBL On Tour Plus, the AC adapter and the game-console bracket; the case's external pouch is ideal for carrying portable electronics to use with the speaker system.

Pricing and Availability

JBL On Tour plus is available in fashionable black, with chrome accents, and is compatible with all portable gaming systems, digital music players and personal CD/ DVD players, as well as laptop and desktop computers. With a suggested retail price of $129.95, JBL On Tour Plus is available online at www.jbl.com, and at quality retailers nationwide.
