If you like the raw, unplugged sound of acoustic music, how about ramping up the volume of your iPhone with a set of speakers that can also deliver music in a similar fashion?
The marriage of engineering acoustics & Apple’s iPhonetechnology has given birth to the first, non-powered, iPhone docking station called, the 'Koostik.’ Withno electricity needed, the ‘Koostik’ is a handmade wooden speaker system that forgoes the use of power and instead uses its material & form to take the sound of your iPhone to new, energy freeheights. Check it out:
At first glance, the ‘Koostik’ resembles the shape of other iPhone docking stations, but unlike its carbon heavy peers, the ‘Koostik’ is hand-crafted entirely from wood. Brilliantly designed, the wooden speaker box works with the same basic principle of an acoustic guitar; using a hollow body device toamplify the sound which is ported from the iPhone's internal speaker.
technology meets nature
two-toned perfection
clean finish.
The ‘Koostik’ can be ordered in a few of different color-ways based on the wood types & combinations. Each product is handmade & unique (varying slightly with wood grains & stain colors). The ‘Koostik’ rings in around $90 & its smaller counterpart the ‘Mini Koo’ can be acquired for $70. Hit the source link below to place your order orfind out more:
