The Conran Audio iPod dock designed by Studio Conran combines seriously stunning acoustics with an elegant design aesthetic.

The sound is beautifully engineered by Q Acoustics and we hope we have created a contemporary design classic.

It is a dedicated 100% pure iPod player that works both docked and wirelessly with iPhones and iPods, and wirelessly with iPads.

Bluetooth connectivity allows song selection from the comfort of an armchair or, if it's your thing, while dancing around the room.

In addition to its ability to play music from physically docked iPods and iPhones, the Conran dock can also play 'wireless audio'.

You can wirelessly stream music across the room to the dock from your iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or MacBook as well as other Bluetooth compatible smart phones, laptops and tablets.

Furthermore, the Conran dock's in-built Bluetooth receiver chip is compatible with 'apt-X', the new high-performance audio coding technology which transmits CD-quality full-bandwidth stereo over Bluetooth connections.

'apt-X' is fast becoming the next 'must have' technology feature in high-end consumer audio devices with pre-installed or dongle-enabled Bluetooth stereo capability.

To enable users to view menus as they wish, the dock assembly rotates, allowing iPhones and iPod touches to be docked in either vertical or horizontal mode.

When not in use, the elegant remote fits snugly into the side of the dock.

The dock boasts six preset audio equalisation settings to optimise its performance for different types and sizes of rooms. These are user selectable via the remote control.

Naturally, other music sources with audio output sockets, such as radios, CD and MP3 players, can also be enjoyed through the Conran dock via its 3.5mm auxiliary input. Pushing the volume control changes the source.
