Sydney, 30 July 2008. JBL, Inc., the leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of a wide range of high-fidelity loudspeakers for home and car and multimedia speaker systems for MP3 players and computers, is excited to announce the Australian release of the JBL On Stage* IIIP high-performance loudspeaker docking station- perfect for use with the new iPhone^TM.

The JBL On Stage IIIP system has the same exceptional style, outstanding functionality and clean powerful sound of previous JBL On Stage systems, but adds iPhone compatibility. It comes equipped with an IR remote for iPod track selection, menu navigation and volume control; it also includes a mini stereo jack for use with non-iPhone/-iPod devices. And with the option of AC power or battery operation, the JBL On Stage IIIP docking station can be used at home or on the go.

Incorporating the Apple^® iPod Universal Dock adaptor, the JBL On Stage IIIP system is compatible with all docking iPod models and the iPhone. And the JBL On Stage IIIP system’s OnePoint design lets the user charge a docked iPod or iPhone, and enables connectivity with a USB 2.0 cable for synchronising an iPod or iPhone with a Mac^® or PC.

Although the JBL On Stage IIIP system takes up a minimum of space, weighing in at only 0.5kg, and measuring only 150mm by 38mm, it features superior acoustic performance, design and functionality. The JBL On Stage IIIP system incorporates four integrated 6-watts-per-channel Odyssey^® transducers for clear flawless sound and deep bass. And interchangeable trim rings are available for color customisation.

“Stylish high-performance JBL docking stations were right there when Apple introduced the first iPod models”, says Richard Metcalfe, International Brand Director for Harman Consumer Group International's Multimedia and Headphone division. “And it is only appropriate for us to deliver a docking product for the iPhone that delivers our legendary performance to a new generation of consumers.”

Pricing and Availability
The JBL On Stage IIIP is now available at major retailers and IT and Audio resellers at a price of $299.95 RRP Inc.
