So i spotted something pretty unique and even a little bit exciting over on iworld the other day. The different thing about these speakers is that that the react to the sounds that are being played though them as they change to a virtual rainbow of colors as the bass notes go up and down. I think its great that some companies are starting to come up with really unique ideas for ipod shuffle speakers that are a little out of the ordinary. I can picture these speakers hanging out of quite a few of my work colleges desks and making for quite an interesting talking point at the water cooler. Indeed im finding more and more of my geek friends buying these kinds of gadgets to impress people at the office, and whats wrong with that!

The speakers also produce a great sound that can cover a pretty wide area (up to a good sized room in my opinion). They come in at around $50 which is quite good for a set of speakers with such a unique feature. I suppose what most people will be buying these for is parties which is a great idea although you may want to buy more than one if you are looking for some serious sound coverage from your ipod. Also i they look even better in a dark room and will give any party that real disco vibe. The only downside that i have found so far is that they are charged from the mains so you cant say they are truly portable which will be more of an issue to some people than to others. Ive seen alot of speakers lately that charge from the USB which is great if you are going to be doing any kind of travelling. Still i suppose the fact that they are giving out such an impressive light show makes the fact that it needs to be plugged in make sense. If they were battery powered they probably wouldn’t last too long. So all in all i think these are a great pair of speakers for your Ipod shuffle which may be on the more expensive side of the speaker range but i would say they are worth it.
