Altec-Lansing inMotion Air wireless home stereo is Mac and iOS friendly
Longtime audio equipment manufacturer Altec-Lansing has announced a new wireless home stereo system at CES this week. The inMotion Air system is an attractively-styled US$199.95 unit that can receive music from an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or any other stereo Bluetooth-enabled device. Two styles are available -- one in black and the other in a gunmetal finish.
inMotion Air comes with a built-in rechargeable Lithium-ion battery for portable use, providing up to seven hours of music. For listening to the iTunes library or internet radio on your Mac, the device comes with an included wireless adapter with a range of 100 yards. The wireless adapter is designed with a pass-through connector so that it never needs to be unplugged from your Mac. While you control Bluetooth playback from the individual mobile devices, a remote control is included for handling computer-based content.
Altec-Lansing engineers have tuned the inMotion stereo with a special sound codec technology that counteracts the usual tinny sound quality of Bluetooth audio. One unique feature is that two inMotion Air units can be tied to the same wireless adapter for more immersive sound.
The inMotion Air will be available from the Altec-Lansing website and Radio Shack stores in February.
