Altec Lansing is cranking up the performance of its line of portable, all-weather Bluetooth speakers with the upcoming release of the Super LifeJacket - the first product in the series featuring omni-directional sound and beefed-up bass as well as a category-first IP68 rating validating its ability to survive indefinite under-water submersion without damage. The line is also being expanded with mini and maxi versions of the award-winning BoomJacket, plus upgrades of current BoomJacket and LifeJacket models.

All new speakers in the series will again feature waterproof, dustproof, sandproof, shockproof, snowproof, floatable and submersible construction, creating an "everything-proof" music player that keeps on jamming even if it gets buried on the beach, left out in the rain, or dropped into any body of water from a fish tank to a river. Six of the 2016 models will also have the ability to be wirelessly paired for simultaneous play of up to seven speakers (the better to rock the party!). They will ship in Q2 2016 with MSRPs from $39.99 to $299.99.
