Interesting form factor: Audio Technica's Bijoué Compact Speaker has been designed to look like a modern-day jewelry box, complete with a mirror under the flip-up lid. The diminutive driver (see photo for scale) is meant to be more of a travel item than a permanent desktop addition; it's powered by a pair of triple A's, so the only cable present is the one you plug into your phone or MP3 player.
The Bijoué was a Japanese-market-only product, but it's now on U.S. shores thanks to NYC-based importer AudioCubes, the company whose motto is "Japan's Best Kept Secrets, Delivered."
