Samson Audio has introduced its StudioDock 3i Active USB Monitors with built-in iPod dock. The StudioDock 3i features a USB port on the back that can be used to connect the iPod to a computer for charging and syncing, and the port can alternately be used to stream digital audio from an USB-equipped audio source.
The monitors incorporate a magnetically-shielded 3.25-inch copolymer woofer and a 1.25-inch silk dome tweeter for extended range, as well as a bass reflex vented cabinet design and an internal 30-watt amplifier. Other features include a front-mounted 3.5mm auxiliary input, headphone jack, and volume controls, RCA input on the rear panel, passive crossovers, and Solid Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) construction.
