Description:

Lightweight and small enough to fit in your pocket, yet powerful enough to fill a room with sound, the LoudMan portable powered speaker system is all that's needed for a laptop, portable CD player, minidisc, or MP3 device. LoudMan provides superb stereo sound from powered speakers in a shell no bigger than a double-CD case. Wharfedale's use of NXT surface sound technology allows for small, thin speakers whose quality is far superior to the traditional small multimedia units that most people are familiar with. A built-in amplifier will accept a signal from any .125-inch minijack stereo output (cable provided), and dramatically improves listening experience, whether you're listening to a personal stereo with friends, giving a multimedia presentation, playing a games console, or just reviewing your latest MP3 downloads.

LoudMan uses innovative NXT technology to produce a diffuse sound. Rather than producing directional, coherent waves like standard stereo loudspeakers, NXT panels produce sound from their entire surface. This means the sound is more ambient in nature, having a number of significant benefits, including a more even sound pattern throughout the room. The sound doesn't get louder and quieter as traditional loudspeakers do when you move in and out of their interference patterns. Rather, each listener will hear the same sound, wherever they are in the vicinity.

Supplied complete with a built-in low-consumption amplifier, the LoudMan can be battery powered (it uses 4 AA batteries, supplied) or used with an optional 6V DC adapter. The LoudMan carrying case stores one LoudMan system, a connecting cable, and six compact discs.
