iPod Hi-Fi Boombastic?
Apple's new Boombastic Boom Box the iPod Hi-Fi
Apple have announced a new Boom Box, dubbed the iPod Hi-Fi. A semi-portable iPod dock and amplified speaker system. It has a dock connector for your iPod, and with it's innovative 3 speaker design will pump out tunes where ever you wish to carry it. If you can carry it that is, it weighs in at 16.7 pounds (7.6 kg) with 6 D batteries on board.
How much!
The iPod Hi-Fi weighs in at £249 GBP or $349 USD. You don't get a radio or fancy built in Air Tunes receiver, but you do get a remote. It has a special tone control for later iPod models so you can control the speakers EQ depending on the acoustics of your room, it will also show full-screen album art as well. Although you would still need binoculars or bionic eyeballs to view across a large room.
How does it sound?
Early accounts are that the iPod Hi-Fi sounds as sweet as the hype, but we will have to wait and hear for ourselves before we pass judgement. It really oughta sound special though at this price break.
