Koostik Mini Koo iPhone Amplifier & Dock

Miniaturization goes hand in hand with most technological marvels. The screens all get bigger, but the device itself (whether it’s a cell phone or a TV) gets thinner and lighter thanks to tinier components. There’s no denying that the iPhone does a lot of things essential to your daily routine, but outputting audio at an reasonable (read: loud) decibel is impossible without some assistance. But taking the party up to 11 doesn’t have to mean sacrificing your battery life – if you get a Koostik Mini Koo. A solid block of either walnut or cherry is specially carved to create a trumpet horn style speaker that will amplify the iPhone’s native volume to levels we thought weren’t possible. Best of all, it only consumes a tiny amount of desk space and can also be used—in an emergency—as a paperweight. Now that’s good looking versatility.
