DIY mad scientist's speaker set

Ian Brown posted pictures on Flickr of his DIY iPod speakers. From the description:

IpodspeakerThese are remote iPod speakers I scratch-built for my wife's iPod shuffle. It's all scientific glass and aluminium construction. The sub-woofer is an inverted glass dome, and a fresnel lens from a rail-car. The guts of the thing is borrowed from a stock computer amp, whilst the speakers themselves are Apple Pro's… You can see from this alternate view that the tripod legs are made from aluminium garden trowles, polished up.
