Samsung brings the party home with new Sound Tower audio range

Samsung enters the Party Audio category in Australia with three new audio products featuring awesome sound, LED lights and IPX5 water resistance for outdoor entertaining

Samsung Electronics Australia has launched into the “party audio” category with the introduction of its Sound Tower series of multi-purpose speakers. The range features three products including the Sound Tower MX-ST90B (RRP $1499), MX-ST50B (RRP $699) and MX-ST40B (RRP $599), available from July in select Harvey Norman stores[1] and the Samsung online store.

The Sound Tower is an ideal entertainment hub for casual gatherings through to karaoke nights and garden parties, featuring bi-directional sound that disperses evenly and complemented by LED lights while being conveniently portable.

Samsung’s Sound Tower fills up virtually any space with 3D sound and can transform any moment into a celebration. With an output of up to 1700 Watts[2], the Sound Tower delivers exceptionally loud and crisp sound quality to bring up the energy with powerful audio.

The Sound Tower series takes party lighting to a new level with five different light modes including Dance, Party and Ambient. The Sound Tower lighting can also be personalised and adjusted with effects to produce the audio-visual harmony for the mood desired.

The ST90B has been designed to create an explosive dynamic sound of 1700 Watts, providing the incredible punching-bass sound experience. The ST50B and ST40B offer a portable sound experience with large capacity built-in battery so the party can continue even without immediate access to a power source. All three models have been developed with durability in mind, passing the IPX5 water resistance rating[3] so users can also experience the immersive sound experience in an outdoor environment.

Jeremy Senior, Vice President of Consumer Electronics, Samsung Electronics Australia said: “Over the last few years, we’ve spent more time in our homes than ever before and for many, they’ve become our sanctuaries. People are enjoying the ability to socialise in the comfort of their own home but are also looking for ways to take their hosting and entertainment experience up a notch or two. The launch of our Sound Tower range and entry into the Party Audio category expands our already impressive range of audio products.

“We’re confident that Sound Tower is going to be a hit with our customers who love creating the right ambience and audio experience when entertaining friends and family.”
