ASUS Cine5 Compact Surround PC Speaker Bar Revealed [ASUS Claims Cine5 Offers World's Smallest 5-Channel Speaker Array]

ASUS has released a new surround-capable compact speaker array for use with home computer systems.  The ASUS Cine5 compact surround PC speaker offers a true surround experience out of what it claims to be the world’s smallest five-channel speaker array.

The focus of the new ASUS Cine5 compact surround PC speaker is to deliver big surround sound from a small package.  The output produced by the Cine5 can reach 28W and 15RMS, ranging between 80Hz and 20KHz.  Its side-facing bass port uses a specially designed reflex system that boosts bass output by 15 dB, enough rumble for a solid PC media experience.  ASUS claims to achieve all of this in a Cine5 speaker bar that measures in at only 373 x 100 x 100.  That, according to ASUS, is the world’s smallest 5-channel speaker array.

The ASUS Cine5 connects to a computer using standard 3.5mm audio jacks allowing multi-channel audio.  When the going gets private, users can plug headphones directly into the Cine5 instead of re-wiring the computer audio system or plugging directly into a tower. The big-sound, little package ASUS Cine5 does not yet have a release date or a price, but keep your eyes peeled in early spring for delivery updates.
