Carrying Cases Double As Portable Speakers for MP3/CD/DVD Players & Laptops;
Includes Special Cases for Use on Bikes and Car Visors
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- 2005 International CES, LVCC CEN 15222
-- If you like your media on the go but don't like the shut-the-world-out
feeling of wearing earphones, Sakar International's new family of Sound Cases
will be music to your ears. These protective carrying cases for MP3, CD and
DVD players and laptops incorporate built-in speakers that let the sound out
of the bag --- literally. Special cases allow the music or other audio to
play loud and proud on bikes and car visors, too.
The line includes seven different bags that are wired for sound. In each
instance, the integrated speaker amplifies the audio so it can be heard
without headphones and even shared with others --- whether on the road or in
the office. As a bonus, the pairing of the case and speaker in one unit
eliminates the need to buy two separate accessories.
The lineup includes:
-- MP3 Sound Case (MSRP $29.99), a water-resistant hard-shelled container
with a speaker on the front, an inner mesh pocket to hold the MP3
player in place, and a storage compartment for memory cards. Shoulder
and belt straps are included.
-- CD Sound Case (MSRP $29.99), a slightly larger carrier for CD players
with similar features and a storage compartment that holds up to
12 CDs.
-- Stereo Sound Case (MSRP $39.99), a model with two amplified speakers
that accommodates either an MP3 or a CD player, and holds up to 36 CDs.
-- DVD Sound Case (MSRP $49.99), a leatherette version that houses a 5" or
7" DVD player, includes stereo speakers embedded in fold-out flaps on
either side of the open player's screen, and has a front storage
compartment for DVDs.
-- Laptop Sound Case (MSRP $59.99), a microfiber carrier with a cushioned
protective laptop compartment and stereo speakers for laptop audio.
-- MP3 Car Visor Sound Case (MSRP $29.99), a holder/speaker that pipes MP3
tunes into the car without the messy wires of inverters. The product
slides onto the car visor and has a speaker in the center with separate
compartments on either side for the MP3 player and batteries.
-- Bicycle Sound Case (MSRP $39.99), a saddlebag-type carrier with two
built-in speakers and a cushioned compartment that holds either an MP3
or CD player. The case fits on all bikes, fastens to the bicycle bar
with Velcro with no installation required, is weather-resistant, and
delivers enough volume to play over traffic while also providing safe
riding without headphones.
Each Sound Case runs on a 9-volt battery and gets its audio feed through a
built-in connector that plugs into the media device's headphone jack.
