Cambridge debuts i765 combo iPod stereo system

Cambridge SoundWorks has released a new combination stereo system, the i765. The system is notable mainly for merging several major abilities into the same unit, including AM/FM radio, CD and DVD playback, and iPod docking, arguably the focus of the design. A wide variety of iPods are said to be supported, but the stereo more specifically supports Apple's new Touch, Nano and Classic models. Listeners can control their iPod through the bundled remote, and see track information displayed on the LCD.

Wattage ratings are unpublished, but the company says that a built-in subwoofer should provide more bass than many similar systems. The 765 is somewhat limited in terms of output options, however, as it uses a basic auxiliary sound connection, and composite or S-Video TV jacks. The stereo should be out now at Apple Stores and other locations for $500.
