September 12, 2006 -- Addressing the needs of Apple iPod enthusiasts, Mustek today unveiled its new Paragon line of iPod-dockable home audio systems. Available in a sleek tower design (TW450) and a compact tabletop model (DT260), Paragon audio systems make it easy to experience audiophile-quality stereo sound from an iPod in any home, office or dorm room.

The perfect sidekick for the most popular MP3 player in the world, Paragon audio systems incorporate a universal docking cradle compatible with all iPods except iPod Shuffle. The system simultaneously recharges the iPod while it fills the room with sparkling clear acoustics and deep bass, thanks to a powerful, distortion-free amplifier, three-way shielded speaker system, and built-in subwoofer.

A wireless infrared remote lets users enjoy across-the-room navigation of their iPod music library, as well as to advance and rewind tracks, mute the sound, or control volume and power.

The Mustek Paragon TW450 is a floor-standing tower of power that adds drama and elegance to any room. Its advanced 45W amplifier helps to create a three-dimensional soundstage while its 5.25-inch, dual-coil subwoofer supplies maximum bass output without excess vibration, whether it’s pumping out hard rock, hip-hop or jazz. A port located on the back of the speaker allows for an RCA line-in for connecting to traditional audio sources. The TW450’s big sound is contained within a footprint that occupies less than one square foot (9.45” W x 37.8” H x 14.17” D).

The Mustek Paragon DT260 is a mini-boombox that lets everyone enjoy an iPod’s music. Class leading technology is merged with convenience in features such as USB 2.0 and FireWire, Apple-inspired touch controls for handy desktop use, and an audio input for use with other MP3 players or audio sources. The DT260’s compact dimensions fit neatly and unobtrusively on virtually any flat surface, making it ideal for the kitchen, bedroom or office.

Both systems come with power adapter, remote control with battery, docking insert for iPod Mini and nano, spacers to accommodate the iPod 15GB/20GB/30GB/40GB/60GB, audio cable, and docking cover. Both are immediately available. MSRP is $249.99 (U.S.) for the TW450 tower system and $129.99 (U.S.) for the DT260 tabletop model.

Mustek products are sold at select retailers and on-line sites, including Mustek's own www.mustekdirect.com. For more information, please visit www.mustek.com or call 949-790-3800.
