They’re baaaaack. Harman International has released the JBL Creature III, an updated version of the three-piece, science fiction-inspired speaker system that originally landed on desktops in 2002.
The latest version sports a refreshed design with a more streamlined, airy feel. Available in black, the speakers also glow from the bottom. The Creature III is a “plug and play” solution that’s compatible with Mac and PC platforms, portable music players and gaming consoles.
The JBL Creature III speaker system features soft-touch tactile controls, which require only a slight touch to increase/decrease volume or mute the system. The unit also has the ability to recall the volume settings in use when the system was last used.
The JBL Creature III incorporates the latest in Odyssey transducer technology and JBL’s heritage of high- quality speaker performance to produce impressive bass response and clear midrange tonality, according to the folks at Harman. The subwoofer boosts 15 watts total, and the power satellites five watts each. Frequency response is 50Hz – 20kHz.
The JBL Creature III has a suggested retail price of US$129.99 and will be available exclusively at Apple retail stores and at the online Apple store.
