Cumberland RI, USA (January 6, 2018)ION Audio, a leader in lifestyle consumer electronics, today announced the introduction of its new Garage Rocker wireless water-resistant jobsite speaker. Garage Rocker is the perfect companion for construction sites, home improvement projects, or for anyone working in the backyard or workshop. Its powerful 50-watt speaker system with Bass Boost delivers vibrant, lifelike sound, so music sounds great. Garage Rocker is IPX5 waterproof, so work is never interrupted by a few raindrops. It streams music wirelessly from any Bluetooth®-enabled device, so anyone can play all their favorite music. With its high-capacity rechargeable battery, Garage Rocker plays all day—it won’t quit before the end of the shift!

This is a real work companion, too—not just the day’s entertainment. The convenient magnetic tool holder is like a second pair of hands. With an integrated ruler, protractor, drill bit holder/identifier, socket tray and magnetized screw tray, Garage Rocker is an indispensable work partner as well as providing all-day music, sports and news. It’s versatile, too: it comes complete with a high-quality microphone, so everyone will know when they get to go in for lunch. It also has a 1/8-inch Aux input for connecting non-Bluetooth devices, a USB charge port to keep your phone fully charged up, and importantly, its large rubberized buttons are easy to operate even when wearing work gloves.
