Griffin Announces The New iMic

Filed under: Hardware

Griffin Technology Inc., creator of exciting innovations for Mac, PC and iPod, today announces the new iMic USB audio adapter, redesigned for today’s hardware. iMic was the original USB audio adapter that enabled Mac and PC users to add stereo input and output to their USB computers that, otherwise, lacked the necessary hardware support. iMic allows you to connect virtually any microphone or sound input device to your iBook, PowerBook, PowerMac or other Mac or PC systems with a USB port. iMic supports both mic and line level inputs via a selectable switch, as well as a variable level output for connecting speakers or headphones.

iMic’s audio is superior to most computers’ built-in audio because it uses USB for the audio signal. USB isolates the audio signal from the noisy electronics in your computer, giving you higher quality sound when you record, and higher quality sound output for external speakers. Use it in conjunction with your laptop for noticeably cleaner and louder output.

Pricing & Availability
The new Griffin iMic’s suggested retail price is $39.99 USD, and is scheduled to begin shipping in mid November. Pre-orders are being accepted at www.griffintechnology.com.
