JBL's On Stage Micro II and On Tour Micro make waves

JBL has been winning it big lately, further consolidating its leadership as one of the world’s leading audio provider. Congratulations are actually in order, as their JBL On Tour Micro, an ultra portable speaker designed to give users great sound from any source, has been named as one of the winners for this year’s edition of the ‘red dot award: product design 2012.’

The JBL On Tour Micro is a lightweight compact speaker that users can bring anywhere and use anytime. The unit works compatibly with any of today’s portable multimedia players and smartphones while being powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery.

Also, I just found out that the winners at this year’s edition of the BRIT Awards, the British Phonographic Industry's annual pop music awards, were presented with a JBL OnStage Micro II White, which was part of the goody bag distributed during the event. The 2012 BRIT Awards winners include leading pop music icons like Adele, Coldplay, One Direction, Rhianna and Bruno Mars.

The JBL OnStage Micro II measures at just 150mm in diameter and weighs in at only 0.3kg. But the small unit comes with two JBL Odyssey full-range transducers, which gives it the muscle to outperform many much larger systems. Powered by four AAA batteries, the JBL OnStage Micro II delivers hours of continuous use and can even sync with iTunes and charge your iPod or iPhone through the use of a USB cable.

Fancy getting any of these two compact and lightweight speakers? Well, both the JBL OnStage Micro II and the JBL On Tour Micro are available at ‘harman house’ stores across the UAE.
