 Logitech has announced its new set of speakers for the iPOD called the Logitech Pure-Fi Dream. With premium audio, an application of motion and light-sensing technology, a built-in digital AM/FM radio and a dual alarm with battery backup, the Pure-Fi Dream speakers should do the job nicely.
Unlike a clock radio, the Pure-Fi Dream is a premium bedroom audio system supported by 3/4-inch high-definition, soft-dome tweeters and 3-inch high-power, long-throw woofers. And by activating Logitech’s StereoXL technology, you can enjoy a wider soundfield that should create a better audio experience.
As mentioned earlier the Logitech Pure-Fi Dream speakers use the latest motion-sensing technology. So for controlling the Pure-Fi Dream in a dark room, the motion-sensitive, backlighted control buttons automatically light up when a person waves a hand over the top of the speaker; the buttons automatically dim when the person has finished changing the speaker’s settings.
The backlighted buttons should also make it convenient to set the alarm clock without turning on the light or fumbling in the dark.
The motion-sensing technology also extends to the Snooze function. Instead of hitting a button, you can simply wave a hand over the Pure-Fi Dream speakers to sleep for a few more minutes, eliminating the inconvenience of leaving the bed, inadvertently waking up a sleeping partner or accidentally knocking the iPod across the room.
For those who prefer hitting the Snooze button with their hand, the Pure-Fi Dream also offers a prominently displayed tactile button located on the top of the system.
In addition to offering motion-sensing technology, Logitech also incorporated light sensors into the display. The light-sensitive, auto-adjusting display brightens during the day, making it easy to read from across a room.
The amber lettering clearly displays the time and date, iPod track information, radio stations and volume settings. And in the evening, when the display automatically dims, the speaker still provides information that you would want to see – including a an LCD screen that provides track, song and artist information – without emitting unwanted ambient light.
There are 24 separate presets available – six iPod playlists, six AM radio stations and 12 FM radio stations. The speakers also offer dual alarms, providing two settings – one for each partner. The alarm can be set to go off to an iPod track or playlist, radio station, or buzzer. And with a built-in back-up battery, there is no need to worry about missing the alarm.
For added convenience, with the included remote control, people can select their favorite iPod playlists, radio stations, control Volume, skip Forward and Back, Play, Pause, Shuffle or Repeat tracks, and Snooze the alarm from across the room.
When an iPod is docked in the system, the speaker charges the iPod.
The Logitech Pure-Fi Dream is expected to be available in the U.S. beginning in November. The suggested retail price in the U.S. is $249.99 or for UK you are looking at £180.
