Aperion Audio announced a few days ago a new two-way home theater tower speaker designed to put out big audio in a compact design. It’s called the Aperion Intimus 4T and pricing is set around $650 per pair.

The Aperion Intimus 4T tower speakers feature dual 4″ woven fiberglass composite mid-woofers and a reportedly audiophile grade 1″ silk dome tweeter. A pair of these speakers is designed to be used as either the main speakers in small to medium sized rooms, or they can be used as surrounds as part of a larger system. Body colors to choose from include gloss black or real cherry.

Disco Stu doesn’t rock just any speakers. They have to be Disco-licious and authentically groovy like these Saturday Night speakers that resemble a south park character. Put on your boogie shoes and your finest polyester and get ready for some funkadelic tunes pumped through two afros.

They won’t connect to your 8-track or Hi-Fi, but they will connect with any MP3 player or computer with a standard 3.5mm mini stereo jack, and they charge via your USB port. Perfect for those who have iPods full of Barry White and the Bee Gees.

A company calling itself Digital Signature has unveiled its latest wireless audio/integrated iPod audio device. The Digital Signature Mint 220 prices around $180.

The Digital Signature Mint 220 makes use of TI’s PurePath Digital audio technology and its own proprietary 2.4GHz USB wireless transmitter to let you listen up to 45 feet away. There’s also a built-in iPod dock/charger and a universial line in for connecting other audio devices.

Those of you that have your pads decked out in a 2001: A Space Odyssey theme will appreciate these speakers from Oh by Tutondo. They’ll fit right into your Sci-Fi theme and they’re also equipped with a centralized system so the whole house can enjoy the sound quality.

You can attach the speaker to any wall or ceiling, thanks to it’s multi-position design. Pricing starts at about €400 for the speaker with ground support and will cost you as much as €2500 for a home theater system consisting of 2 speakers with ground support, 3 speakers with multi-position support, and 1 active subwoofer.

Anyone in the market for a high-end loudspeaker should take a moment to check out the latest release from Anthony Gallo Acoustics. The company has announced an upgrade to the Reference 3.1 loudspeaker with the Reference 5LS, measuring 78 inches tall but just 7 inches wide and 11 inches deep.

According to AGA, this loudspeaker, which has all speakers inline vertically, has come closer than any other of its kind to becoming omni-directional with a 300 degree dispersion. The vertical speaker arrays consist of seven of AGA’s CDT II tweeters alternating with eight 4″ carbon fiber mid-range drivers. The back side then holds a set of twelve 4″ subwoofers that equal the surface area of a single 15″ driver, but speedier due to the smaller size.

Klipsch is expanding its line of upscale Palladium speakers by adding the P-38F and P-37F floorstanders, P-17B bookshelf speaker, P-27C center channel, P-27S surround and P-312W subwoofer. These new speakers are pricing at around $12,000 (per pair), $8,000 (per pair), $4,000 (per pair), $3,500, $4,000 (per pair) and $4,000, respectively.

These new speakers join the Palladium P-39. Klipsch had this to say about its new speakers:

The folks over at Canton really love to do up classy speakers which push our credit cards towards the limit. The latest are the Chrono 511 DC tower and the compact Chrono 501 on-wall speaker, priced a little more reasonably at around $1,400 and $425, respectively.

Canton said both speakers make use of the “ADT-25 aluminum-manganese dome tweeter. The tweeter employs a one-piece aluminum-manganese dome and voice coil former.” What this reportedly does is provide better sound performance.

The new Yamaha YSP-3050 certainly isn’t the first sound bar speaker system we’ve previewed, but its features show it may be one of the coolest. It will cost you though at around $1,400.

The Yamaha YSP-3050 is described by its maker as a digital sound projector and it is designed to work in conjunction with a HDTV. It can be wall mounted or placed on a shelf for this purpose. General features include 1080p HDMI support, multi-channel surround sound and video up-conversion.

Designer speakers don’t necessarily do much to add to the high quality audio they produce, but they still look good doing what they do. A case in point may be the recently announced Loiminchay Audio Degas, price unknown.

The Loiminchay Audio Degas are handcrafted in a design technique described as layer by layer using Birch MultiPly laminate. The speaker cabinets are bored out then finished with sixteen coats of hand-polished lacquer. Lamb’s wool filling is even reportedly used in the speaker enclosure as well.

Klipsch announced today some great looking new speakers which it says put out extremely great music.

Klipsch said the speakers in the Icon W Series will be available in solid wood grain with two different finishes and that they will also sport new horn engineering. You can get the full details of these new speakers after the jump.

JBL has rolled out some new speakers it says are uniquely shaped to provide multiple installation options depending upon your space. They are called the Control Now speakers and they are priced at around $250 each ($280 for an outdoor version).

The JBL Control Now speakers sport a curved, quarter-round shape to let them be corner mounted, placed on a shelf or hung in a variety of places by themselves or joined to create half-round, three-quarter-round, or round configurations.

Some good news for sound. The Sony Tubular non-directional speaker concept has now become a reality. The speaker is being released on June 20th, 2008 and it measures 325mm x 1845mm x 325mm and 12.5kg. The “Sountina” speaker is a transparent and organic glass tube that vibrates to expand sound a full 360 degrees.

You’ll get a frequency response of 50Hz – 20,000Hz, an input line, 13cm subwoofer speaker, 7cm medium speaker and the tweeter which is also made from organic glass. It’s priced at around €6500. If they add some color, every Jedi in the galaxy will be using them and matching colors to their lightsaber.

It seems that the guitar mania that has engulfed the geek world with games like Guitar Hero and Rockband is here to stay. So you may as well embrace it and get yourself this iPod speaker amp. You probably already have the Guitar Rocker and the catbox 360 after all. I’m sure this will make your life complete.

Just plug in your MP3 player and you are ready. It’s not just for your mp3 player either, you can also use it as a computer speaker. It has working treble and bass knobs and a 5-watt output. It can be powered from your computer via USB, or by using 3 AAA batteries.

Creative has launched a new addition to it’s line of portable speakers with the TravelSound for the iPod nano. This one-piece speaker attaches to the docking port of Apple’s nano and pumps out the sound to share with others. This new TravelSound speaker appears very similar to the TravelSound i50 that we saw last fall for the iPod nano, and the design is no doubt inspired by it.

The new TravelSound portable speaker is relatively small and lets the 3rd generation nano fit right into the design giving it an overall thickness of less than an inch with 3.9 inches in total height. It also comes with a little plastic stand, and if you can keep from losing it since it’s not attached, will provide a safer rest for the speaker with your iPod in it.

We’ve seen a number of waterproof solutions that allow you to take your iPod safely on the beach or in the shower but the Icebar V2 combination case may be the best one we’ve seen yet (and the most expensive). The case provides a waterproof housing for you iPod nano and built-in waterproof speakers for places where it’s inconvenient to use headphones.

The case does have a port for headphones if you’d rather keep your tunes personal, and also has a click-wheel membrane to give complete control of the iPod through the case. The body is made of a shatter-proof polycarbonate which allows you to easily see the iPod display, but just be case the case is shatterproof doesn’t mean the iPod you put inside is.
