No strangers to TFTS, iLuv – whose i9200 (the i9500’s forerunner) we’ve featured here previously – have introduced the latest in its range of invariably highly desirable music entertainment systems in the from of the new, sleek iLuv i9500 iPod/iPhone docking station which also sports a 4x CD player and which can be placed either as a freestanding unit or wall mounted.
Set to be formally introduced at next year’s CES expo in January, the iLuv i9500, apart from offering an integrated iPod/iPhone dock, naturally supports MP3 and WMA files burned to CD (as well as standard CD audio) as well as offering support for playing back digital audio directly from SD cards and USB flash drives. Additionally the iLuv i9500 also comes with AM/FM PLL digital tuner with 32 station presets (16 for FM, 16 for AM) as well as programmable alarm with timer and snooze functionality.

In terms of output, the iLuv i9500 offers 2.1 channel sound at up to 45W with lower frequencies more than being taken care of courtesy of a fairly substantial separate subwoofer.
There’s no word on pricing or availability as at the time of writing with iLuv choosing, understandably, to keep its cards fairly close to its chest until the i9500’s first official outing at CES, however, based on the specifications released we cannot help but feel that iLuv really ought to have offered wireless connectivity in order to help iLuv to push the i9500 as a full blown digital audio entertainment hub but, unless iLuv are set to drop a surprise at CES, this would appear to be something that iLuv have negated. Shame.
