The speaker system for hands-free tablet viewing

Home theater? With the Definitive Technology Sound Cylinder and a tablet, you've got on-the-go theater! This lightweight speaker system clamps to your tablet, providing a stable base for your device. The magnesium alloy clamps have rubber slipcovers to hold your tablet securely without scratching it. A built-in fold-out kickstand keeps your attached tablet upright on a flat surface for convenient viewing.

The speaker system for cinematic sound

The Sound Cylinder is a great tablet stand, and an even better speaker system. Two front-firing 1-3/4" full-range speakers deliver crisp, clear sound from your music and movie soundtracks. A side-firing 1-11/16" woofer fills out the bass, and the system's advanced digital signal processor optimizes speaker performance to provide an engaging, spacious soundfield. Definitive's built-in Surround Array imaging technology helps the system deliver an impressive near-field listening experience.

The speaker system for wireless convenience

The Sound Cylinder uses Bluetooth to connect wirelessly to your tablet or other portable device. So although the system clamps to your tablet, there are no cables to mess with. Want to use the Cylinder with a non-Bluetooth device? No problem — just use the auxiliary stereo minijack input. The system provides up to ten hours of operation from its built-in batteries.

From our Definitive Technology Sound Cylinder review:

[With movies] the surround effect was quite similar to that of sound bars I've heard, just on a smaller scale. I found myself getting lost in a particular action sequence, with the Sound Cylinder delivering powerful sound effects, robust musical flourishes in the soundtrack, and easily discernible dialogue. This truly felt like home theater shrunk down to a very small package I could take anywhere.
