Acoustic Alarm Clocks

In what was made to be another alarm clock to wake you up in lieu of the usual annoying buzzing and alarm, the Acoustic Alarm Clock from James McMahon offers a more relaxing way to get you out of bed through relaxing acoustic tunes.

The said clock offers adjustable acoustic tunes that were made possible by adjusting the tuning pegs that come with it. The Acoustic Alarm clock features a waxed birch plywood cabinet and two stainless steel knobs for setting the alarm and time.

Odd as it may seem, it remains to be seen if this alarm clock could really make it into the market. Check out the video below.

Lego Clock Radio

Lego is at it again! We have seen flashlights and cameras and now they have Lego Radios! At first glance you will know immediately that this is a Lego-based radio. But apparently, do you know if it is a radio?

It takes the shape of any modern Lego Brick which should be a great add for the kids room who play with them most of the time. It features the usual volume knobs and tuner controls, with AM/FM radio and a snooze feature. Unlike real LEGOs this requires 4 AA batteries. Just make sure you tell your kids that it is a clock radio though since they may hurl and toss it as they would for any normal Lego toy brick.

Crossley Table Alarm Clock Speaker

This alarm clock looks like a radio-clock taken from the 70’s but carries a new twist as it can play your iPod or MP3 players like any normal add-on iPod dock would do. However, it doesn’t charge your device like most do.

The alarm clock would be a great gift to give any student that is headed back to school. The clock plugs into the wall and has all of the usual things a clock radio has. It comes with the usual things like an AM/FM tuner, a snooze button and volume control and station knobs. It costs $58.00.
