Hi-fi specialist KEF yesterday unveiled its new Picoforte One iPod music system.
The compact digital system includes a 50W class D amplifier, an iPod dock, two 16 cm tall speakers and a remote control.
KEF prides itself on producing stylish equipment and in order to keep its reputation intact, the Picoforte One's amplifier, dock and speakers are all made of die-cast zinc and finished in sleek high gloss black or white.
The speakers employ Uni-Q technology to provide 25w of power, which means that despite their diminutive stature they should provide sound loud and clear enough to fill most rooms.
It is compatible with every current iPod and also has connectors to allow it to be linked up to a subwoofer and a television.
The Picoforte One will cost £250 when it hits the shops in August.
For people with more expensive tastes, German design house Xexoo has launched an iPod nano that comes encased in 18-carat gold.
Music lovers with more money than taste can get their hands on one for the bargain sum of £9,400.
