Destined to Reign

Denon has a few new audio offerings as of late, with the S-52 iPod speaker dock firing the opening shot. It's also an internet / DAB / FM radio, CD player, and a wireless audio streamer that can stream MP3s, AACs and other formats from a PC. At £500 ($1000+), it's rather expensive, but you get a lot of bang for your buck. Also new is the AT-SP30BLH speaker set, which couples up with the ID-5 iPod dock. $230, and the duo's yours: although at only 6 Watts output, you're probably best looking elsewhere.
