Altec Lansing debuts the T612 digital audio system for the iPhone and new iPod family of products. The T612 provides crisp sound for music and multimedia, while also featuring iPhone incoming call support.

iPhone In-Call Support

The T612 complements key features of the iPhone, including support for incoming calls. If a call comes in while music is playing, the iPhone gives priority to the call by pausing the music. Once the call is completed, the iPhone is re-docked in the T612 and the music resumes playing the same song in the same place.

The T612 also supports internal GSM shielding to keep its speakers from picking up potential intermittent noises emitted by the iPhone or other mobile devices.
Designed after Altec Lansing’s successful M602 digital audio player, the T612 features powerful neodymium speakers and XdB bass-enhancement technology for exceptionally rich audio reproduction and solid bass response for a desktop system of its size.

The T612 sports Apple’s Universal Dock to play and charge all iPhone and new-generation iPod models. In addition, the rear of the T612 provides a standard auxiliary-in jack for connection for MP3 players and audio devices.

The T612 utilizes Apple’s Class 5 authentication chip, giving additional control features for both the iPhone and iPod via the wireless remote. Users can now shuffle songs, access the menu as well as Track Back, Track Forward, Play/Pause, control the Bass, and Treble, Power On/Off and control the Volume.

Available in Springtime 2008, the Altec Lansing T612 system will be sold at leading CE retailers and is priced in the region of £139 (inc VAT)/ €199 (inc VAT).
