LaCie Sound2
$100.00
Released October, 2009
The Pros:Magnetically shielded. 3.5mm AUX input for use with standard analog connections from non-USB devices (eg/ MP3 players). Class D (digital) amplification - efficient, cool, lightweight.
The Cons:Weird looking. No subwoofer. Powered by USB - limited draw.
The LaCie Sound2 is a higher-end 2.0 hi-fi speaker system, designed by Neil Poulton and the result of a collaboration with upscale French audio company Cabasse. The minimalist design, incorporating glossy white exteriors and circular black grilles, each speaker angled upward, is most notable.
