Logitech Laptop Speaker Z205 Delivers Big Sound for Small Computers
FREMONT, Calif., Mar 02, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Laptop and netbook computers are portable and powerful enough to do
everything you love such as enjoying music, movies and video calls. But
as computers have gotten smaller, audio quality has often been
sacrificed. To enhance the audio quality of your favorite tunes and
movies, today Logitech (SIX:LOGN) (NASDAQ:LOGI) announced the Logitech(R)
Laptop Speaker Z205 -- a lightweight speaker with an easy-to-attach
clip-on design that lets you pump up the volume wherever you take your
laptop.
"While people love the portability of their laptop computer, they are
often missing out on the immersive listening experience that external
speakers provide," said Mark Schneider, vice president and general
manager of Logitech's audio business unit. "When designing the Logitech
Laptop Speaker Z205, we wanted to help people get better audio while
enjoying their favorite shows or music without sacrificing portability.
The Laptop Speaker Z205 is tiny enough to toss in your bag, but delivers
big sound."
Whether you use a Mac(R) or a Windows(R)-based laptop or a netbook, the
Logitech Laptop Speaker Z205 securely
attaches to the top of most laptop screens. The Laptop Speaker Z205
is also small -- approximately 1.35 inches thick and 2.5 inches tall --
which means you'll always be able to take it with you. And the included
carrying case protects your speaker while inside your briefcase or
backpack.
Now, when you're watching your favorite show, listening to Pandora(TM), or
making a video call, you'll enjoy rich, full stereo sound thanks to two
high-performance drivers, a built-in amplifier and an acoustically tuned
enclosure. And you can easily adjust the volume as well as turn the
speaker on and off using the buttons located on the top of the speaker.
The included USB cable is all you need for power and audio -- there's no
need for an external power supply -- so simply plug the Z205 into your
computer and start enjoying your entertainment.
Pricing and Availability
The Logitech Laptop Speaker Z205 is expected to be available in the U.S.
and Europe for a suggested retail price of $39.99 (U.S.) beginning in
March.
