We’ve seen some pretty extreme docks iPod before, but never any quite like Jean Michel Jarre’s Aerosystem, a high-end iPod dock that looks like it’s an unused prop fabbed up for 2001: A Space Odyssey.
The futuristic audio system literally puts the iPod on a pedestal by building its speakers into a tower of glass tubing, upon which Jobs’ jewel sits perched like a museum piece. The speakers – two 20-watt stereo units and a 40-watt subwoofer – rest in segments sandwiched between glass on the way down the shaft. If that all sounds a little dramatic, just try looking at the photos and tell us it wouldn’t look right at home in orbit.
