Portable Loudspeaker Dock for iPod and iPhone

Why JBL?
Been to a movie or a concert recently? There's a good chance that you were enjoying the show on JBL loudspeakers. If you've watched TV or listened to CDs, what you listened to was more than likely recorded on JBL equipment. For more than 60 years, JBL has been the loudspeaker brand of choice for recording professionals around the world. Now you can enjoy that same renowned JBL sound quality from your iPod or iPhone.

OnePoint Design
The OnePoint iPod connectors provide the connection to your computer. Connect the USB cable to the rear of the unit; then, every time you dock your iPod, you will have a connection for synchronizing and charging.

Evercharge Topology
When your iPod or iPhone is docked, it will receive a charge, even when not connected to the computer or if the system is off. The On Stage II provides the power to make sure your device is ready to go when you are.

Easy-to-Use Music and Navigation Controls
Just a touch of the music controls on the On Stage II increases or decreases the volume. Using the navigation controls on the remote control, you can browse iPod songs, photos, and playlists; change tracks and settings; and much more. With the remote, you have complete control of your iPod, as if it were in your hand.

RF Remote Technology
The JBL On Stage Micro II IR remote has several modes of operation. The Music mode allows you to control the volume, change tracks, fast forward, and fast reverse. The iPod Navigation mode allows you to navigate the iPod or iPhone menus just as if you were touching the device itself. You can navigate your music, watch your slideshows, and find and play your videos.

Small Package, Serious Sound
With its four Odyssey transducers, the On Stage II delivers 12 watts of total power. Proprietary technologies help provide the highest audio quality, for great bass and clear, accurate sound from any direction.

  • Odyssey transducers--The Odyssey drivers provide accurate high frequencies while capable of low-frequency extension of four octaves, unlike traditional powered tweeters. This design provides a full, rich frequency response from low bass to the highest highs.

  • Slipstream port design--The JBL On Stage Micro port minimizes boundary layer separation, providing high-output bass with low distortion.

  • COE (Computer-Optimized Equalization)--The JBL On Stage Micro system equalization is computer-optimized to provide a rich, complete soundstage over a range of listening positions.

  • OCT (Optimized Compression Topology)--The system utilizes a proprietary compression technology to ensure clean, accurate sound at high output levels.

Battery or AC Power
The On Stage Micro II will run on AC power with the included power supply, or on four AAA batteries. Add the unit's ultra-compact profile, and you've got a superb portable device. Enjoy your favorite music at the beach, at a picnic, or anywhere else you'd like.

Auxiliary Input
With a standard 3.5mm mini jack, you can connect iPod shuffles, MP3 players, or pretty much any audio device for enjoyment through the Micro II's speakers.

Corsair Gaming Audio Series SP2500 High-Power 2.1 PC Speaker System (CA-SP211NA)

Corsair Gaming Audio Series SP2500 High-Power 2.1 PC Speaker System (CA-SP211NA) Review



Corsair Gaming Audio Series SP2500 High-Power 2.1 PC Speaker System (CA-SP211NA) Feature

  • 232 Watts RMS of continuous power delivery through six Class D amplifiers
  • 8" subwoofer with durable rubber surround in a fourth-order bandpass enclosure
  • Bi-amplified satellites with 3" drivers and 1" ferrofluid-cooled silk dome tweeters
  • Wired desktop controller with 1.8" (4.6cm) color TFT display and multi-lingual interface
  • Programmable digital signal processor for advanced dynamic audio processing
  • Clean, high-fidelity audio reproduction with excellent stereo imaging

With the SP2500, Corsair has reinvented the PC speaker system. Get ready to experience a revolution.

The Gaming Audio Series SP2500 is the product of a design philosophy that embraces the importance of clean, detailed audio reproduction -- not just for games, but for movies and music as well. Building a great PC speaker system is more than about giving you room-shaking power. You also need optimal imaging and positional accuracy, and sonic depth and detail. Since you have only one speaker system, you don't want to make compromises. That's why we've created the SP2500.

Product Features
Full System

The smartest speaker system you've ever met. The digital signal processor and dynamic digital crossovers provide sophisticated processing and equalization effects for a listening experience that simply can't be matched on ordinary analog speaker systems. Enjoy late night gaming or movies without disturbing others, adjust your listening experience for your favorite gaming, film and music genres, and choose from custom listening environments. The power is yours.

Satellite

The beauty of bi-amplification, and more. Each two-way satellite has discrete digital amplifiers for both the specially developed 3" midrange driver and the custom-designed 1" ferrofluid-cooled, silk dome tweeter for accurate reproduction. You'll enjoy pristine audio that's clean and tight, even when pushed to the limits. You'll also experience stereo imaging that's nothing short of amazing, creating a compelling experience that's as close as possible to how the recording engineer or the game designer intended.

SP2500 Controller

You're in control. We've designed the Gaming Audio Series SP2500 to be a flexible and capable audio hub that will give you years of performance through multiple PC upgrades. You get a PC input, two additional audio inputs (perfect for a gaming console and your MP3 or network music player), and a headphone connector that lets you tap into the incredible digital processing power even when you're listening in private. Master them all with the desktop controller. The 1.8" (4.6cm) color TFT display looks great, day or night (and even includes a night mode color scheme). You can use the intuitive menu system to:

  • Enable Mod X™ theatrical audio processing for Blu-Ray and DVD audio that recreates the theater experience
  • Select dynamic DSP programs like Late Night, which uses the power of active digital crossovers to redirect bass tones to the satellites
  • Choose custom-designed EQ curves for sophisticated environment simulation and optimal enjoyment of game, music and movie genres
What the Experts are Saying...
Award 1

"The Corsair Gaming Audio Series SP2500 High-power 2.1PC Speaker System is exceptional and we have absolutely no reservations about recommending these. Assembly was extremely easy, the speakers look great, and performed well in all of our tests. Corsair makes excellent, innovative products and its SP2500 speakers are another reason why the company deserves your hard earned dollar." –
-HardOCP January 11, 2011

Award 2

"All in all, Corsair's splash into the PC speaker market has been a success in our view. The SP2500 is a ridiculously powerful desktop buddy, one that won't let you down if you decide you want to drown your entire apartment building in block-rocking beats. Construction and components are up to Corsair's typically skyscraping standards, which is also why these speakers come with a significant premium." –
-Engadget January 5, 2011

Award 3

"When the Corsair SP2500 2.1 PC speaker system showed up in the test lab we hooked it up and were shocked to hear our music. We were able to hear details in the audio that we weren't able to make out on our old speaker system. The satellite speakers on the SP2500 are amazing and the midrange audio is crystal clear. Most audiophiles talk about sound separation and having bass that overpowers vocals and we finally get what they were talking about. The Corsair SP2500 might 'just' be a 2.1 speaker system, but they fill a room with crystal clear audio that is worth every penny of it. The Corsair SP2500's are worth it. You truly need to hear these to believe it. The Corsair SP2500's are worth it. You truly need to hear these to believe it."

Portable loudspeaker dock for iPod and iPhone

Why Harman Kardon?
For more than 50 years, Harman Kardon products have delivered--through extraordinary industrial design, innovative technologies and meticulous engineering--the ultimate listening experience. And for the past 10 years, Harman Kardon has used these techniques to develop some of the world's best-sounding and most-striking-looking multimedia products available. Whether for your computer or your iPod, Harman Kardon multimedia products deliver rich, high-quality sound from systems that look just as good as they sound. In fact, the Harman Kardon SoundSticks system is now in the permanent collection of New York City's Museum of Modern Art.

Compatibility
The Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro is compatible with all docking versions of the iPod (including the nano G3, iPod classic and iPod touch) and iPhone. Via its auxiliary input, the Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro is also compatible with MP3 and CD players, as well as desktop and laptop computers (all platforms). When using the Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro with a docking version of the iPod or iPhone, it will even keep your device charged when plugged into AC.

Video and Photo Playback
Why not watch the video content from your iPod or iPhone on the big screen? With an included composite video output, connecting your Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro to a video display is easy. With your Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro connected, you can now enjoy all the video content from your device on a larger screen while still enjoying the incredible sound quality that the Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro delivers.

iTunes Connectivity
Have new music or movies that you want synced with your iPod or iPhone? Just dock your iPod or iPhone and connect the Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro to your computer via the USB connection. Once you have accessed your iTunes account, a simple click of your mouse transfers all of your favorite content easily to your device.

Flexible Power
Take the new Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro with you anywhere; it works both with the included AC adapter and on batteries. You can rock out for hours from just eight C-cell batteries, and there's even a handy battery-save feature that will save your battery power when the system isn't in use.

Stunning Sound Quality
The Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro is the true audiophile's portable loudspeaker dock for his or her iPod or iPhone. Its stunning sound quality starts with Harman Kardon's proprietary Atlas and Odyssey transducers. The dual Odyssey tweeters are designed to be very lightweight but extremely rigid. This means high frequencies are detailed and clear while delivering sound over a wide listening area. The Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro's Atlas woofer is also rigid but designed to move a lot of air. The result is deep, extended bass response with minimal distortion. To power these advanced drivers, the Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro actually uses two amplifiers to drive the woofer (30 watts X 1) and tweeters (15 watts X 2) independently for exceptional richness and clarity of sound. Finally, to ensure clear, low-distortion sound at high output levels, the Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro uses advanced digital signal processing (DSP) along with computer-optimized equalization.

Easy-to-Use Music and Navigation Controls
The Go+Play Micro's minimalist design means it is very easy to use. Its elegant, stainless-steel touch-volume controls mean that a single touch increases or decreases the volume. And for those times when you want complete control from across the room or across the beach, the Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro comes with a wireless IR remote control. The elegantly laid-out control allows you to direct basic system operation along with most iPod and iPhone operation from up to 4.5 meters (15 feet) away.

    JBL On Stage IIIP Portable Speaker Dock for iPod and iPhone (Black)

    JBL On Stage IIIP Portable Speaker Dock for iPod and iPhone (Black) Review



    JBL On Stage IIIP Portable Speaker Dock for iPod and iPhone (Black) Feature

    • Supports most iPhone and iPod models with Universal Dock Connector
    • 3.5-mm mini jack allows connection of other audio devices such as MP3 and CD players, desktop computers, satellite radios, and laptops
    • Odyssey transducers and Slipstream port design provide a full, rich frequency response
    • Includes an RF remote control with full iPod navigation
    The JBL On Stage IIIP portable loudspeaker dock is the ideal travel partner. Imagine the convenience of taking the JBL On Stage IIIP speaker dock on the road or enjoying the sound right at your desktop. Connected to your iPod or iPhone, MP3 player, or other music source, it produces clean, powerful sound--while also charging your iPod or iPhone. With the help of the IR remote, you can take complete control of your music with the JBL On Stage IIIP loudspeaker dock.

    Enjoy your iPod or iPhone, view photos or videos, and listen to virtually any other auxiliary audio component, all through the JBL On Stage IIP system.

    Combines many proprietary technologies to provide the highest-quality sound, astonishing bass, and clear and accurate audio from any direction.

    Compatible with dockable versions of the iPod, including the iPod touch, iPhone, iPod classic 6G, and iPod nano 3G.

    Which Dock Is for You?
    JBL has been in the iPod dock business for a while, so it's no surprise that the company has crafted enough models to keep up with an ever-increasing army of iPod owners. Which one is right for you? Well, that depends on what kind of pod person you are:

    For the Power Hungry
    For those who seek more volume, the On Stage 400ID should be your first stop. At 2x15 watts, it's the loudest and largest of the bunch, and features an Atlas woofer for added bass. But size isn't everything--the On Stage Micro boasts the same wattage rating without the woofer.

    For the Weekend Warriors
    Those who need a dock that they can take anywhere should investigate docks that can be powered by batteries. The On Stage Micro runs on four AAAs, whereas the On Stage IIIP and On Stage III run on six. Take your music to the beach, on camping trips, or wherever you can't bear to be without it.

    For the iPhone Techies
    The iPhone owner has a couple choices--if you can stand to put the thing down. The On Stage IIIP provides a smaller and more portable option, or the On Stage 200ID gives a bit more power. These two docks support all docking iPod models as well.

    For the Featurephiles or Heavy Sleepers
    Some of us just aren't content with basic functionality; we need more buttons and more lights. Others just need a little nudge to wake up in the morning. If this is you, then the On Time 200ID and 400IHD are for you. Both feature an alarm clock and AM/FM radio, with the ability to wake up to your favorite song stored on your iPod (and then reject it with the snooze button). Of course, for the masochists, a classic buzzer is also available. The On Time 400IHD adds a dual alarm clock and HD radio to the mix, for a crystal-clear signal and a variety of text-based information (artist name, song title, weather alerts, school closings, etc.) scrolled across your screen.

    Something for Everyone
    All of these models feature a remote control for full iPod navigation, Evercharge topology to charge your iPod even when it's not connected to a PC or the system is turned off, a mini-jack for auxiliary devices, and the sleek design and solid performance you'd expect from JBL.

    Compatibility
    The JBL On Stage IIIP system is compatible with docking versions of the iPod, including the iPod touch, iPhone, iPod classic, and iPod nano 3G. A stereo mini jack connection also allows you to enjoy high-quality audio from a variety of other devices such as MP3 and CD players, desktop computers (all platforms), satellite radios, and laptops. Specific dockable iPod compatibility: iPod mini 1G; iPod nano 1G, 2G, 3G; iPod 3G, 4G, 5G, 5.5G, 6G; iPod touch; iPhone.

    Easy-to-Use Music and Navigation Controls
    Just a touch of the music controls increases or decreases the volume. Using the navigation controls, browse songs, playlists, and photos; change tracks and settings; and more.

    Connection Versatility
    The JBL On Stage IIIP loudspeaker dock is a multimedia focal point. Enjoy your iPod, view photos or videos, and listen to virtually any other auxiliary audio component, all through the JBL On Stage IIIP system.

    Additional Features

    • IR remote--The JBL On Stage IIIP IR remote has several modes of operation. The Music mode allows you to control the volume, change tracks, fast forward, and fast reverse. The Navigation mode allows you to access menus on your mobile digital device just as if you were controlling the unit itself. You can search your music, watch your slideshows, and find and play your videos.
    • Evercharge topology--The system charges your iPod/iPhone, even when it's not connected to a computer or if the system is off.

    Advanced Technology
    The JBL On Stage IIIP loudspeaker dock combines many proprietary technologies to provide the highest-quality sound, astonishing bass, and clear and accurate audio from any direction.

    • Odyssey transducers--The Odyssey drivers deliver accurate high frequencies while capable of low-frequency extension of four octaves, unlike traditional powered tweeters. This design provides a full, rich frequency response, from low bass to the highest highs.
    • Slipstream port design--The port minimizes boundary layer separation, producing high-output bass with low distortion.
    • COE (computer-optimized equalization)--The system equalization is computer-optimized to provide a rich, complete soundstage over a range of listening positions.
    • OCT (optimized compression topology)--The proprietary compression technology ensures clean, accurate sound at high output levels.
    • AEMS (advanced energy management system)--The automatic battery-saving shutoff will automatically put the system into sleep mode when there is no audio input. The system awakens with just a touch and resumes at the same volume level.
    • Battery-powered--The JBL On Stage IIIP system uses most types of AA batteries. Six fresh AA batteries allow up to 12 hours of continuous play at normal listening levels. An amber LED flashes when the battery protection circuit senses that the batteries are low. JBL encourages the use of rechargeable batteries (e.g., NiMH), to reduce waste and help the environment.

    What's in the Box
    JBL On Stage IIIP (Black), IR remote control, auxiliary audio input cable, power supply and cord, and adapters for iPod and iPhone.
