Krell iPod dock hits UK with astronomical price-tag

So far, the quality of docks for iPod use had been varied. There are always the cheap, plastic ones with poor audio quality and lack of remote controls. There are also classier ones such as the Shanling MC-30, which retails at £500 (around $950). This month in the UK, high quality audio company Krell, will release a beast of an accessory, marketed as “The world’s best sounding iPod dock”, it sure looks it.

The KID, (Krell iPod Dock) was released in the US in December, but now coming out in the UK, it has been severely marked up. It retailed at £750 (around $1400) in the US, but now in the UK will cost £1,350 ($2,500). It is well suited to up-market audiophiles and also professional DJ’s and musicians. It doesn’t have built in speakers but is much like the amplifiers which control surround sound systems. It contains top-notch circuitry and will certainly be the talking-point of any living room.
