New consumer electronics brand Cue Acoustics, Inc. is introducing its first product ‘Cue Radio(model: r1)’ uses Apple’s universal iPod dock. The Cue Radio delivers full-bodied sound with dynamic range. It uses a 4-channel amplifier architecture in which each of the channels is nominally capable of 25-watts. It collaborated with D2Audio to implement the digital bi-amplification; one amp drives the internal custom-built 3.5-inch woofer. A second amp drives a ¾-inch silk dome tweeter that is nestled within the center of the woofer.

The Cue Radio incorporates CueTouch controls, a fusion of intelligent interface and design features that consists of touch sensitive surfaces, tactile feedback technology and context specific controls. In addition to this smart station tuning, the CueTouch knob actively responds to navigation through the iPod menus providing the same kind of position-specific detents.

Additional technical highlights of The Cue Radio included high-resolution LCD display showing time, alarm settings, tuned station and iPod menu content.

The Cue Radio carries an introductory price of 399(USD), with an optional matching auxiliary speaker used to create a true tabletop stereo system, for an additional 99(USD).
