The My Phone Amp by Aric Snee is a beautiful iPhone stand/amplifier that forgoes many modern design features--like buttons, LED lights, and chrome accents–in favor of the centuries old technique of glassblowing.
Aric Snee constructs each iPhone amplifier by hand personally ensuring that each one meets his own high standards of precision. As an acoustic amplifier, the My Phone Amp has no need of buttons or even a docking station plug, rather the bilateral design of the amplifier is able to increase the sound coming from the iPhone’s own internal speakers to be able to fill your room with beautiful music.
The My Phone Amp is small enough to use in your office, kitchen, or living room, without being obtrusive and is perfectly compatible with either the iPhone 4 or 5.
