Bang&Olufsen BeoLab 4

Bang&Olufsen's BeoLab 4 loudspeakers have been introduced few months ago for discreet audio systems, or as rear speakers in a home cinema setup. Latest incarnation of BeoLab 4 is its compatibility with a computer. Since BeoLab4 is self-amplified using ICEpower modules, it may produce adequate quality sound from the computers audio mini-jack. Of course, the quality cannot be matched to an external DAC, but hey, if you are buying B&O, you must care about looks. In fact, it is the industrial design factor of Bang&Olufsen that seems to win hearts of many. I have personally not seen or heard these little cones but according to specifications, they are pretty decent covering from 50Hz to 20KHz with 2 drivers: 4" concave diaphragm woofer and 3/4" fabric dome tweeter.
A pair for your PC is available now for $1200 or $1270 with included A8 Earphones. Yeah, I know, it's a bit steep.
