inMotion iMV712 – ‘the Mini-Theater System’ for iPods, unveiled by Altec Lansing

High quality speaker systems manufacturing company Altec Lansing has introduced the inMotion iMV712, a pleasingly compact, all-inclusive iPod Video entertainment system that provides powerful, crystal-clear sound and sharp video in one.

With the new iMV712, users can turn their iPod Video into a complete MP3 music + video multi-component entertainment system, making it ideal for any and every environment, from college dorm rooms, teen rooms, desktops, to even the kitchen counter.

Altec Lansing’s iMV712, at its heart has an 8.5-inch high resolution LCD screen surrounded by the company’s custom-engineered speakers to deliver powerful, concert-like sound and a true cinematic video experience. It incorporates an integrated four-inch subwoofer which provides street-rumbling lows and is perfectly balanced with two three-inch speaker drivers for crisp, clear mids and highs. The result is immersive, high-quality audio, which is finely tuned by Altec Lansing SFX (Stereo Field Expander). This technology further amplifies the sound field and gives the user an immersive stereo effect so that the speakers sound further apart than they really are.

Robert Heiblim, Altec Lansing’s senior vice president of Sales and Marketing said, “As the popularity of Internet-based video and digital music skyrockets, consumers want new iPod accessory products that amplify the entire entertainment experience.” Heiblim added, “The iMV712 redefines the concept of an iPod speaker system, delivering consumers a stylish, compact one-two punch of high-fidelity stereo sound plus video display — an ideal digital shelf system for any area of the home or office.”

The Altec Lansing inMotion iMV712 has a buiilt-in Apple universal dock that securely fits and easily charges the iPod. A wireless remote gives easy control over both the speaker and the iPod. Or, listen to other MP3/4 players via the Aux input jack. RCA input connections allow video play from other sources such as a camcorder or VCR.

The Altec Lansing inMotion iMV712 will be available this month for $349.95 (MSRP) in consumer electronic stores and online through the company’s website.
