The IceTune speaker system is a truly unique iPod accessory.

Coloured iPod white, IceTune speakers produce an excellent sound quality at relatively low volume levels but struggle with the bass when turned up loud.

Clearly intended for the mild music listener, the new speakers have one very distinctive feature being, what one reviewer described as Mickey Mouse styled ears.

This feature offers advanced audio quality according to the manufacturers which is fine if the owner is indifferent to the outward impression of their iPod accessories.

Priced at just under £40, the IceTune speaker system offers an interesting, quirky accessory that could well find a profitable niche in the market.
