New compact speaker uses cutting edge technology to create loudspeakers out of every day surfaces
London, 14 October 2011: MTV UK and WOWee ONE have joined forces to create the ultimate, compact, portable speaker for music fans. The MTV WOWee ONE uses cutting edge audio gel technology that allows the speaker to turn everyday surfaces like tables, walls and windows into loudspeakers.
Available in Soulful Black or Rocking Red, the pocket-sized speaker delivers incredible sound quality, including low-end bass frequencies and handles a dynamic range of signal inputs. Compatible with iPod, iPad, iPhone and other mobile phones, it can be recharged via USB and gives fans access to over 20 hours of playtime.
Mark Swift, vice president and commercial director of Viacom Brand Solutions said: “We’re always thinking of new ways to bring quality music experiences to fans. The MTV WOWee ONE is a brand new concept in portable speakers that lets fans listen and share their favourite tunes wherever they go.”
The MTV WOWee ONE is now available to purchase online at www.mtv.co.uk for £49.99, with an exclusive introductory offer of a free MTV branded carry case with every purchase.
This product is currently only available in the UK, Ireland and Australia.
