Available exclusively at The Source

BARRIE, ON, April 10, 2014 /CNW Telbec/ – The Source, one of Canada’s
leading consumer electronics and wireless retailers, has partnered with
Monster, the world leader in high-performance personal audio for the
exclusive launch of the Monster SuperStar™, the world’s smallest audiophile speaker. Perfect for the on-the-go
music lover, this pocket-size speaker can be used for wirelessly
listening to music or enhancing the sound quality on smartphones or
tablets. The built-in mic also offers speakerphone functionality for
taking conference calls via a smartphone.

“We are thrilled to partner with a best-in-class brand like Monster as
the exclusive destination for SuperStar in the rapidly growing
streaming audio category,” said Tracey Elkerton, Vice President of TV
and Home Entertainment at The Source. “The Source is one of Canada’s
leading retailers and our goal is to continue to bring innovative and
exclusive products to our customers, making this a well-suited
partnership. To the busy music lover, sound quality and portability are
equally as important, and the SuperStar delivers the perfect mix of
both.”

Size Does Matter
The SuperStar’s shining quality is no doubt its ultra-compact design
that boasts high performance audio featuring Pure Monster Sound and
advanced apt-X digital processing for clean, outstanding wireless
stereo sound. Unique to the Monster SuperStar is the ability to provide
room-filling sound even when lying flat. Standing only two inches off
any flat surface, the SuperStar is smaller than most smartphones, yet
delivers the clarity, dynamics, articulation, tight bass and sound
pressure levels of a full-size speaker.

Its tiny form-factor is really apparent when in the hands of supersized
superstar and Monster Brand Ambassador Shaquille O’Neal. As an endorser
of the product and brand, O’Neal is excited to be launching this
one-of-a-kind product exclusively at The Source nationwide.

“When you think of consumer electronics in Canada, there’s no retailer
better than The Source,” O’Neal said. I’m very excited that they have
agreed to partner with me on the SuperStar product.”

Monster SuperStar retails for $139.99 and is available in a range of
colours to suit your style. Get it in-store or online at www.thesource.ca.
