B&W Launch Marble and Diamond-Studded Speakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

— May 16, 2007 — Luxury
Bowers and Wilkins have introduced a new line of ultra luxurious speakers, the Signature Diamonds. Our friends at GadgetCandy describe, “Flashing an eye-watering £11k price-tag, there are only 1,000 of the Signature Diamond speakers up for grabs. Still, they'll definitely make a statement, even with Pussycat Dolls blaring though them.”

Implications - With their sizable price, these might not be the speakers for all budgets, but they definitely have an awe-inspiring quality about them. You'd have to be a major music fan to shell out that much dough for a sound system, but if you have the cash to spare there is something to be said for speakers with diamonds in them.
