With consumers moving away from traditional hi-fi systems toward a more mobile approach to music, Libratone worked with Designit on a line of eye-catching portable speakers. The Libratone Live speaker, pictured here, featuers a chrome handle and a removable wool cover (available in several colors). It has a built-in battery an audio jack, and can also sync up with playlists via AirPlay and DNLA, or directly from an iPhone, iPad, Android device, or a laptop computer. Image courtesy of Designit.
