VAF has introduced its new Octavio 1i speaker system for iPod. Measuring slightly over four inches deep, the Octavio 1i features an integrated iPod Dock, two additional audio inputs, one audio output, a video output, a full-featured remote control, built-in digital power amplifiers, advanced signal processing, and audiophile grade speakers. In addition, it comes packaged with three interchangeable acoustic skins in black, pink and silver. VAF’s founder, Philip Vafiadis, said “Whether you’re playing from an iPod alone, or also connecting Octavio 1i to a TV, DVD player and Gaming Console, you will get huge true to life sound without the clutter of conventional Hi-Fi or Home Theatre equipment, and without need for a subwoofer…and you can do it with style.” The VAF Octavio 1i is now available for pre-order from Amazon and is expected to arrive at other electronics retailers soon. It sells for $500. Keep reading for more pictures of the Octavio 1i.

I’ve been wanting these for a while now but couldn’t find anyone who sells it in australia. Finally found an eBay seller by the name of matesrates-au or similar that sells the australian versions and I bought myself one. OMG this system was well worth the money and definitely pumps out crazy amounts of volume for such a small package. Works wicked outdoors for barbies and parties too! I can highly recommend this system to anyone thinking about it.

Nice Octavio pics - I did a reply blog but looks like links aren’t allowed. Hey I heard one and was impressed by the sound too Steve. And I haven’t seen them in stores anywhere either which is kind of weird considering VAF is based here in Adelaide - I think they are available direct from the company though, which is kind of cool. Yay I met Mr Vaf who own the company the other day and hopefully I get to do some blogging for him.
