Art.Suono Is Where Fine Art Meets iPod Dock

by Jay Garrett on March 10, 2009

artsuonodock-and-ampYou fancy a new iPod dock.  You fancy a fancy new iPod dock.

You’ve probably already checked out the one designed by a French synth player, or perhaps one designed by a Stuttgart motor maker and various valve powered models.

If you’ve got $1500.00 to spend at the David Weiner Collection this Art.Suono Wireless Music System could be yours.

This is an iPod dock done up to become a fine art piece.

Righty.

What do you get for the cash?

In addition to the extraordinary DWC-Wireless transmission and DWC-APHEX® sonic enhancement technologies, Art.Suono features universal inputs and iPod® docking for any iPod® or iPhone, an “Engine Start” power button, a “Shift” input signal switch, an input signal jack, LED indicators, and a convenient volume control designed to allow quick, yet precise volume changes and muting for those times when you need to talk on the phone. Installation is simple and quick, without the need for any tools or computer skills. All accessories and wiring are included with each Art.Suono system.

I know – you can’t wait to cash up and run away with your Art.Suono.

Just remember that $1500 tag!

For some artPod eye candy go here for a collage.

iPod Classical – The Bach Pod from Passionato

by Jay Garrett on December 14, 2008

bachpodIf you’re a huge fan of a certain JS Bach but the 172 CD set which was released to mark the 250th anniversary of the composers death was a little too expensive at its £1,000 price point; this may just be what you’ve been looking for.

Passionato have just released the Bach iPod.

The clue is in the name – this is an iPod Classic packed full of the work of J.S. Bach. More specifically 175 hours of the stuff; all pre-loaded in 128KB AAC format.

You get a 120 gig iPod Classic and the whole collection that originally retailed for a grand all for £499. The music is also contained on 3 back-up DVDs so if you ‘Pod does crap out at least you’ll still have your JSB safe. :)

And even with all those classics pre-loaded, there’s still 63GB of space free for your ABBA, Steelers Wheel, Strapping Young Lad and Carcas tracks.
