October 26, 2006

Monster® is proud to announce four new iPod® accessories are now shipping—the iCarPlay Wireless 200 FM Transmitter, iTV Link A/V Cable, iSplitter 200 Headphone Splitter, and the iEZClick Wireless Remote, “As the iPod continues to gain popularity seemingly every day, so does the need for accessories to complement the growing need of iPod enthusiasts,” explained Noel Lee, The Head Monster. “Monster has once again created several new accessories for iPod users for use both at home and on the go.” The Monster iCarplay Wireless 200 FM transmitter allows iPod users to play music wirelessly through virtually any FM station on their car stereo while simultaneously charging their iPod. With many FM transmitters, finding a frequency clear enough to enjoy an iPod on can be time consuming, distracting and at times impossible—especially while driving. The new Monster iCarPlay Wireless 200 incorporates exclusive Monster AutoScan technology that automatically seeks out and tunes in the clearest FM frequency available. Now it’s possible to find the best station to enjoy tunes with one touch of a button. In addition, iCarPlay Wireless 200 clearly displays all essential information on the iPod’s screen and features easy three-button control to directly access features and settings. Other features include three programmable station presets, international modes that allow use in North America, Europe and Japan, intuitive three-button control and ultra-low profile 12-volt power adapter to minimize dashboard clutter. The Monster iCarPlay Wireless 200 retails for $99.95. The Monster iTVLink for iPod is designed to directly connect an iPod to a TV to enjoy photos, music videos, TV shows and movies on a bigger screen. The iPod is capable of delivering high-quality picture and video and has enough storage capacity for hundreds of movies. Monster iTV Link features a dock connector connection for the iPod and S-video and stereo audio outputs that easily connect to a TV. Monster’s advanced S-video connection delivers a brighter, more colorful and detailed picture. A composite video adapter is also included in case a TV doesn’t offer an S-video input. The Monster iTV Link for iPod also features a built-in mini USB charging port to enable connection of an optional mini USB cable to a computer or optional Monster iSlimCharger to keep the iPod charged up at the same time. Plus, when connected to a computer, iTV Link will also sync an iPod with iTunes for added convenience. Now it’s possible to charge up, sync and watch iPod photos and video come alive on the big screen with Monster iTV Link. The Monster iTV Link for iPod retails for $49.95. The Monster iSplitter 200 is designed to enable two people to easily share and enjoy video and music while on the go. Two built-in volume controls let both listeners set their own individual volume level. Now, each listener can set the volume level that’s right for their own ears. The iSplitter 200 also features an integrated quick-access mute switch that gives one listener instant silence. Now it’s easy to mute the sound on one set of headphones for a quick conversation or a short break, without stopping the music for the other listener. The Monster iSpitter 200 is tough enough to go anywhere. High impact construction protects iSplitter from knocks and drops. A protective Duraflex® jacket wraps the cable and a strain relief collar lets the iSplitter bend without stress on the cable connections. Plus, its 24k gold contacts maximize signal transfer for better sound quality. The iSplitter 200 is perfect for the iPod, portable CD, DVD, and MP3 players as well as laptops and smartphones – virtually any portable electronic device with a mini-headphone jack. The Monster iSplitter 200 retails for $19.95. The Monster iEZClick is a wearable RF-based wireless remote control for iPod perfect for use while snowboarding, jogging, or hiking on the go activities. The Monster iEZClick wirelessly commands the iPod without tangled wires or bulky add-ons. Why fumble with an iPod each time the volume is adjusted or a song is skipped. Now it’s possible to keep an iPod safely tucked away in a pocket, case or backpack during rigorous activity. Whether on the slopes, on a bike, or simply on the go, the iEZClick gives complete wireless iPod® control. The Monster iEZClick features a rugged weather-resistant housing for outdoor use in the elements. It is easy to wear on a belt or keep it on a bag with the included clip or it can be wrapped on a wrist or handlebars with an elastic Velcro strap. The oversized buttons provide “no look” control and are easy to push, even with gloves on. Additional features include controls for On/Off, Play/Pause, Volume, Track Skip, Hold and Previous/Next Playlist. RF (radio frequency) enables use through clothing, cases and cabinet doors without pointing the remote at the iPod and features an operating range of up to 30 ft.
