Five Sony PC Speaker Sets
Boosting its audio lineup in time for the holidays, Sony Europe today launched five speaker sets for computers aimed at mid-range and traveling listeners. The A212B and Z510 cater to users who expect solid audio at a desk and include their own respective tricks for boosting sound. The A212B includes a 1-bit digital amp, while the Z510 adds a switchable Mega Bass enhancer and a relatively large 55mm driver. Two basic models offer just essential sound, Sony says. The A201 takes nearly the same shape as the A212 but uses a simpler 57mm cone shape; in turn, the unique AX10 offers a lamp-like shape that floats the satellites above the surface.
One portable speaker set will also be on offer for notebooks, according to the company. The M30 can operate completely independently from a separate power source with a built-in battery, allowing it to play from a digital audio player or a notebook without USB speakers. Both satellites can attach to each other to become a single piece for road trips and have the option of AC power when near an outlet. The M30 and all the other speakers should be available now or in the near future, with prices varying by the country.

Why print articles like this? While the net is international, this site is primarily American, obviously so since the advertisers are all American. No point in printing articles about items not available on these shores.
