I have tried searching about this before but does anyone know if any half-decent (iMac / LED Cinema Display)-like speakers have been released. I was just curious if any company had released speakers with stands that look similar to the iMac or the new LED Display.

I have seen the mStand that is basically a macbook stand that is designed like the iMac stand but i have not seen any speakers.

If i ever thought about buying speakers i would like them to go with the new LED Display stand (not that i have one, nor a macbook for that matter but things can always change). I just like things to match, like black keys on the new keyboards and and some kind of aluminium+black color mouse. The speakers would have to have a stand that looked pretty much like the display stand (smaller of course) and the actual speakers should be aluminum-color too, possibly with a black bezel and a rectangle shape with curved corners, not round or anything. ;)

Thanks.

I really like the design (and sound quality) of my Lars & Ivan BoBo speakers.

I use a Logitech Z-2300 system and I replaced the Logitech Satellites by these Lars & Ivan speakers.

Those are actually pretty nice.

Although ideally one designed like this (a quick mockup really) would look nicer with the iMac:

The holes in it would either be like the ones on the bottom of the LED Display or like the fine ones on the new macbook pro. I know nothing like this will be made from apple but it would be nice for a designer to make something like it. And as for the black bits they would be at an angle like this:

I bought them online in The Netherlands (where I live).

These speakers had a raving review by What Hifi, a leading Hifi magazine in the UK:

They also have a nice 2.1 system: Lars & Ivan QoQo 2.1:
