HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Aug. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- VOXX Accessories Corporation's 808 brand has teamed up with Backstage Creation's Celebrity Retreat to provide a first look at the 808 CANZ during Sunday's Teen Choice 2013.

Celebrities backstage at Teen Choice 2013, including One Direction, Demi Lovato, Rebel Wilson and Liam Hemsworth, will be the first to experience the enormous sound and incredible power of the 808 CANZ, a brand new wireless Bluetooth speaker. Smaller than a soda can, 808 CANZ provide big sound in a little package, with the punchiest sound around via a Bluetooth wireless or a line-in connection.

"The 808 Canz has been engineered to deliver the high performance sound that consumers have come to expect from premium audio products, without the outrageous price. That's what the 808 brand is all about," said David Geise, President of VOXX Accessories Corporation.

808 CANZ provide studio quality sound and intense bass from a tiny, rechargeable, can-shaped speaker. The wireless speaker supports Bluetooth v.21 and also includes a 3.5 audio line input for versatile listening options. With a range of 30 feet and a battery life of 5-6 hours (at a normal volume), CANZ are a convenient option to listen to music anywhere without sacrificing sound quality.

808 CANZ will be available in red, blue and silver this September for $39.99 from major retailers including Wal*Mart, Sam's Club and Office Depot.
