As far as I can remember, my first experience with Lego is way back when I was 11 when my sis who's then lived in Wisconsin, gave me a big box full of Lego bricks. I was esctatic when I got it coz it's not a typical toy that one could ever have. It's the kind of creativity building - coz with Lego you can build almost anything as far as your imagination could stretch. I can still recalled one thing that I love building - the house, with all the windows and rooms and little miniature Lego 'people' inside it - which I think made me love home design ever since. I dunno where is the stuff now, but I heard that my sis still keep it safe in her house for my nephews to play with. Hmmm... talking about passing down the heritage, huh?
Anyway. Little that I know when I grew older (which is now, unfortunately!) I got to have the Lego brick again to collect. Nope, it's not the one to build cars or houses, but for my iPod instead. It's the speaker in a shape of a Lego brick. I can't remember what brand it is coz when I saw it at Debenhams I just drawn to snap it fast. (Plus it's on sale too that time!).
It has this '+' sign on both sides that acts as the speaker. To control the volume, there're two buttons on the bottom row - the 3rd and 4th from the left - to reduce or increase the tone. It's so light that I can barely feel any weight it caused.
Volume wise? Well, you got what you pay for. Costing less than £10, the volume is not as superb as Altec Lansing or Bose (come on.. it's not fair to compare to those giants!). It gives slightly pitchy sound with a bit husky or breaking off of the noise. Yet, the volume is loud enough that i can still hear the song playing even when I'm in another room.
This thing is so portable and suit for those who always mobile and doesn't bother to mess around with wires or batteries. And if you're creative enough, why not build the whole speaker dock with the other Lego bricks! =)
It fits snuggly to the docking port of the iPod/iPhone
Once plugged in, the volume slider on iPod will disappear,
and controlled by the speaker instead.
