Muon Aluminum Speakers

The blogosphere has been all abuzz over these gleaming beauties, the Muon speakers. The over six-foot-tall aluminum speakers were created in a collaboration between KEF, the loudspeaker manufacturer and Apple's industrial designer, Ross Lovegrove,known for his work on the iMac. The result are these sinous speakers which are created from super-formed aluminum. They are four way speakers that use the KEF proprietary Uni-Q drive unit array to create a seamless sonic picture. There are also two additional bass drivers mounted in the back of Muon. There are just 100 pairs being made and they sell for an astounding $140,000 per pair. Check out video of the launch in Milan via MoCo Loco.

For that price you could get a full Home Theater set of Dynaudio Evidences. Maybe not as pretty, but it's probably going to sound a lot better.

Just to be clear, Lovegrove did not work on the imac. He did briefly consultant for apple at a different time on a different unrelated project.
