Value Rating:(2.0 out of 5)

Review date: Mar 7, 2007

When Audioholics called me a few months ago and asked if I would be interested in reviewing a tube based desktop speaker system, I immediately said yes. Who wouldn't be intrigued by such an idea? A digital iPod combined with an old-school vacuum tube based audio system. This could be great or it could be a joke, but it sounded like fun either way.

ProsCons
  • Rich, warm tone with jazzy or acoustic music
  • The tube puts off a cool white glow
  • iConec dock is well built and full of features
  • System is styled to look like a 1st generation iPod
  • Distortion and poor performance at higher volume levels
  • Does not handle rock music well
  • System is styled to look like a 1st generation iPod
