WALDok Is The Speaker Dock Your iPod Nano Deserves

By

We see a lot of Kickstarter pitches come through our inboxes, but WALdok is one of the rare ones that actually catches our interest.

The idea is pretty simple. The WALDok is a compact speaker dock for the new iPod Nano that fits into any wall socket, juicing your Nano even as it plays your tunes. That’s not particularly innovative in and of itself, but where WALdok is aiming to distinguish itself is in audio quality: not only does the design include a large 40mm driver for precise highs, excellent audio clarity and robust volume, but the WALdok has been designed with a spacious bass chamber inside the body to act like a subwoofer, achieving a fuller and richer low-end response,

WALdok looks like an absolutely gorgeous product, taking complete advantage of the modularity and portability of the Nano while making it easy to take both your tunes and your charger with you on the road, wherever you go. WALdok is now looking for backers, and production will begin once $30,000 has been committed, with a single WALdok starting at $79.
