Sound Comes To The Surface

Franklin Electronic Publishers, the experts in portable technology, have developed ROADIE™ which is set to present consumers with one of the most unique offers you have heard - it will turn any hard surface it touches into a speaker.

Using distributed mode technology ROADIE™ is able to deliver big sound anywhere by amplifying vibrations through any flat surface, allowing you to transform a desk, kitchen bench or even a wooden floor into an audio experience. High-end clarity is enhanced by an upfiring tweeter with EQ setting and a 360° sound field.

The device includes a built-in mic and boasts the ability to be used in conjunction with any electronic sound device including iPods, MP3 players, DVD players, mobile phones, PC's and VoIP.

Russell Goldberg, Managing Director of Franklin Electronic Publishers said "because ROADIE™ is only the size of a can of soft drink, now you can truly take great sound performance with you. Business travellers will find it particularly useful for presentations, teleconferencing, DVDs and also unwinding".

ROADIE™ has an SD/SDHC card slot with built-in MP3 player and is powered by a 20W RMS amp, boosted further by vibrations delivered through any hard surface. It includes AC adaptor with international plug set, rechargeable lithium battery, USB/Audio/Microphone cable and a carry case.

With a recommended retail of $169.95, ROADIE™ will be available from October in Australia's leading electronics, travel, gift and department stores.
