Blaupunkt Releases Ultra Portable Music 'Deck'

Blaupunkt's recent innovation, the Velocity 2Go is, they claim, the world's first complete active system that combines a stereo speaker and subwoofer in a single enclosure. The image below shows a futuristic looking enclosure that has a number of features too. It accepts all the three power inputs, of a car, home utility or AA batteries.

With the Velocity 2Go, Blaupunkt has created a product that can be used virtually anywhere: as an active subwoofer in the car or at home. The Velocity 2Go is a compact line-powered hi-fi speaker system. Out and about or on holiday, the battery-operated sound machine belts out the tunes in combination with any portable music player. It can even be used in professional environments – at the office or in an auditorium.

Ajay Sahney, Country Head - Car Multimedia (Blaupunkt), India, said, "Velocity 2Go redefines portability and is not only a new product from Blaupunkt but a new concept for consumers. In today's environment characterized by consumers on the move, we believe that Velocity 2Go will find ready acceptance in the country."
