Up-to-the-minute design: The P’9120 desk radio |
GERMANY. Porsche Design has introduced a new radio that blends purist design with an aluminum finish.
The P’9120 desk radio was developed jointly with Etón Corp of Palo Alto, California, and is available now in Porsche Design Stores.
The radio comes with three 1.5in speakers, an active subwoofer and double-wall structure, said to ensure top-class true-to-life acoustics.
In Europe, the radio, which comes in a solid aluminum casing, is available in a version which provides access to both analogue and digital transmissions via the same device (AM, FM, short wave and DAB – Digital Audio Broadcasting).
Different types of iPod can be linked up to the radio via an external cradle. Both the radio itself and any iPods connected to it can be operated via a remote control unit.
Etón Corp is an American manufacturer of radio products in the consumer electronics sector. Etón’s motto, “re-inventing radio”, reflects that corporation’s aspiration to develop radios which stand out from the crowd because of their up-to-the-minute design, technical innovation and functionality, Porsche Design said.
