Hardware Music System by Jean Michel Jarre

BT Fasmer — Sun, 19 Sep 2010 20:08:07 +0000

In 2005 Jean Michel Jarre founded a company called Jarre Technologies. His goal was to create high-end, affordable and aesthetic home-entertainment products – and of course add some of that Jarre magic we all know so well.

Now the AeroSystem One is ready for launch. It is the result of four years research and development by Jarre and his team of sound engineers. Conceptualized in France, this powerful sound-system can accept many digital formats, such as MP3, AAC and WMA .

Most importantly, it is compatible with iPod and iPhone models and comes with an integrated USB 2.0 port, as well as a mini-jack port offering the possibility to connect the system to a laptop, a CD / DVD player, smartphones, hard-disk files, as well as a vinyl turn-table. It too incorporates an electronic signal circuit, tailor-made to reproduce both the bass line and high notes with optimal precision.

And it looks great! Check out all you need to know on Jarre.com.
