Roth Audio's ALFiE Compact Home Entertainment System

 

The sleekly compact black ALFiE home entertainment system is a mix of iPod dock, MP3 player speakers and CD / DVD player. The dock for the iPod is built in, but any similar player can be connected through the auxiliary-in point. 

There's also a radio alarm and remote control as the cherry and chocolate sprinkles on top. Roth Audio has packed the ALFiE with the ability to spew out up to 40 watts of power, using a 2.1 amplifier. 

The large sound from the compact body is apparently achieved with the use of a "downward-firing" subwoofer, and you can adjust the treble and bass for the perfect listening experience. 

It's not your budget choice, though; the rrp when it hits the UK next month will be £400.
