MusicTote transforms CD/MP3 players into a portable stereo

August 29, 2002

Today CCP Inc. announced the introduction of a CD/MP3 stereo system which converts a headphone only CD/MP3 player or flash memory device into a carry and share anywhere stereo sound system.

"We saw an opportunity to take a great product like a headphone CD/MP3 player and make it even more useful and enjoyable. Here is a product with a wide demographic appeal. Paired with the MusicTote(TM), personal CD players now have a whole new dimension of use, it is a natural extension," CEO James Carter explains. "Reminiscent of the boom box, the MusicTote(TM) is more convenient, lighter in weight, less than 3 lbs., uses only one 9-volt battery, provides a protective environment to carry your player, CDs and accessories as well as amplifies and plays your music."

Carter continues, "Unzip the front of the bag, placing your player in one of the two pockets, plug the pigtail from the MusicTote(TM) amplifier into the headphone jack of the player and turn them both on. The MusicTote(TM) will amplify and project your player's music through its own detachable twin stereo speakers. The speakers can be pulled away from the sides of the bag and spaced apart approximately 14 inches on either side. If you are going to travel, simply press the speakers against the bag side and rewind the speaker wire into the bag using the wire rewind on the rear. The MusicTote(TM) is equipped with a carry handle, shoulder strap, auxiliary power jack, 12 CD storage compartment and zippered storage pocket. The system is a convenient means of taking your player and CDs anywhere - office, beach or park."
