Powered by mobile sound leader Audifi, the Thunderstorm Handheld Home Theater features high-efficiency, front-facing speakers that project cinematic-quality sound. Ported speakers and integrated air channels in the design allow optimal airflow so bass frequencies come alive. The free, downloadable Thunderstorm App provides extended control with customize soundscapes for music, movies and games so your content always sounds its best.<\/p>\n

Designed to fit flush around an iPad, the Belkin Thunderstorm Handheld Home Theater connects directly through the iPad dock connector for a seamless experience. A direct connection eliminates the possibility of dropping the connection to the speaker and provides optimal calibration for the audio sound effects. It also features a multifold cover for a variety of comfortable viewing angles and screen protection.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wanted the audio quality to match the brilliant, high definition visual experience that the iPad\u2019s retina display is known for, and provide an immersive powerful audio solution so you can experience content the way it was meant to be.\u201d said Brendan Sparks, Head of Marketing and Product Management Belkin ANZ.<\/p>\n

“Belkin tapped us to engineer the sound performance of the Thunderstorm Handheld Home Theater from the inside out and we’re happy to see end results. Through the design of core circuits, sound processing, custom speakers and a surprisingly thin acoustic enclosure, Audifi engineered a level of sonic depth and precision that was, until now, impossible to achieve in mobile devices.” said Bruce Lancaster, general manager and vice president at Audifi.<\/p>\n

The Belkin Thunderstorm (G3A1000) is available now\u00a0for 30-pin connectors (iPad 2, 3rd<\/sup> generation) for $249.95, with a model for Lightning connector available in the near future.<\/p>\n
