The Conran Audio iPod dock designed by Studio Conran combines seriously stunning acoustics with an elegant design aesthetic. The sound is beautifully engineered by Q Acoustics and Conran hope they have created a contemporary design classic. In addition to its ability to play music from physically docked iPods & iPhones, the Conran dock can wirelessly stream music across the room to the dock from your iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Mac Book as well as other Bluetooth™ compatible smart phones, laptops & tablets. Furthermore, the Conran dock's in-built Bluetooth receiver chip is compatible with 'apt-X', the new high-performance audio coding technology which transmits CD-quality full-bandwidth stereo over Bluetooth connections. 'apt-X' is fast becoming the next 'must have' technology feature in high-end consumer audio devices with pre-installed or dongle-enabled Bluetooth Stereo capability. To enable users to view menus as they wish, the dock assembly rotates, allowing iPhones & iPod touches to be docked in either vertical or horizontal mode. The dock boasts six preset audio equalisation settings to optimise its performance for different types & sizes of rooms. These are user selectable via the remote control. Naturally, other music sources with audio output sockets, such as radios, CD & MP3 players, can also be enjoyed through the Conran dock via its 3.5mm auxiliary input. Pushing the volume control changes the source. Enjoy your music your way; with your player neatly engaged into the dock & controlled via an ergonomic remote control or streamed wirelessly* from your iPod or iPhone in the palm of your h&. The remote fits into the side of the cabinet when not in use. A future design classic.
