Wall Of Sound

There are plenty of erroneous pieces of technology floating around the world and we believe this may be another one. We completely understand the need for a very loud sound system, but an iPod dock that takes up a whole wall?

The Wall of Sound is a new product from Brothers; claiming this to be the largest iPod speaker on the market - and we're not going to argue with that. The speaker weighs in at 225 pounds with a frame size of 3x4-feet and 28 speaker elements. And it's even hand-crafted.

The Wall of Sound boasts graceful mids and crystal clear highs with frequency response of 40Hz-20.000kHz. Like they say on the website, apparently listening to loud music is a way of life.

You can order The Wall of Sound on their website for $4,495.

I cannot tell if they are trying to be extreme, or extremely ironic that iPod needs a speaker this huge.

And the photo showing the speakers freely floating seems to be photoshopped because the perspective is wrong.

I think the name bore the product in this case; someone just wanted to take the term wall of sound very literally.

It's like the Monolith in 2001 with an iPod dock.

"A part from being a the wolds most powerful iPod speaker"

Three mistakes in one sentence, on a one page spread for a high end $4,500 speaker does not fill me with confidence in this product.
