Sonic Gear i-Steroid iPod system, the last tube speaker

by Adam Berger on Aug 30, 2006 at 07:55 PM

Sonic Gear i-Steroid iPod speaker systemFor those of you who remember the sweet sound of analog will really appreciate this product. The Sonic Gear i-Steroid 2.1 speaker system looks sweet as hell but I am worried that they are selling to the wrong crowd. It seems that over 70% of iPod users were born years after black and white TVs, A-tracks, record players, cassette tapes, thus they certainly do not know what a vacuum tube is. Enclosed in a wooden speaker box is a tube-based amp to provide the rich sound that came before CDs, MP3s, and iPods. The i-Steroid also has a FM Radio tuner, and it comes with a remote control.

The set comes with a sub that stores the bass as well as two satellite speakers. It is currently available in the U2 iPod black/red color scheme as well as the standard iPod white, for £159.99 at Play.com.
