LaCie's Dual Power Sound 2 USB Speakers with Neil Poulton Flare

Lacie tempts us today with another set of avant garde speakers from designer Neil Poulton, the LaCie Sound2. Similar in style to other Poulton-LaCie speakers, these speakers have some serious internals that warrant special attention. They may look like the belong in the Pompidou Center but these odd looking speakers will make you feel more like you are in a concert hall than an art center. LaCie has partnered with musical experts Cabasse to match high fashion with sound quality. Packing a pair of 80Hz - 20kHz response drivers and an internal 30W power amplifier these bad boys aren't toys. When running on AC power and USB connected, you'll experience 30W of crisp sound from an onboard sound processor. This enabled when attached to a PC or Mac with no need for drivers. If an AC power source isn't handy you can still power the speakers solely by USB using the attached cable, sacrificing some output power.

The ubiquitous PMP isn't left out of the fun though either. The Bass Reflex speakers also have a line-in port of the stereo plug adapter variety that can pump high fidelity sound for your iPod or other portable device. Astoundingly, the designer speakers with the major thump won't empty your wallet. They will retail for $99 at Lacie's online store. No word yet on the exact release date but you should be able to get your hands on them soon.
