The AmpLamp table lamp does not only function as a practical device, it is also a posh home accessory that helps you add to the room's overall ambiance with soothing tunes without looking out of place. The layered design, in fact, adds to the overall charm of your pad and features some pretty decent specifications such as 80 watts of juice and an integrated subwoofer at the base.



The speakers themselves are stored within the lampshade, relying on technologies to produce stereo sound from a solitary source. NXT technology replaces the conventional cone woofer, allowing any flat surface to function as a speaker while AirSound technology uses tiny side-firing speakers that include the spatial information.



AmpLamps’ captivating earthenware base is traditionally crafted in Staffordshire. Every detail of the finish is given individual & skilled attention. The facets, curves & angles reflect the immediate environment, resulting in an enthralling, organic shape that you will never tire of appreciating.



Shades are also hand made in the UK, using high quality fabrics selected both for aesthetic quality, & transparency to sound. You are actually given the chance to choose the base, shade type and color palette, to match your interior scheme.



The sound of the AmpLamp combines tightly controlled deep bass with crystal clear presence, accuracy and precision. Even with the shade in place, the unit delivers above 20kHz, which is higher than you can hear - the domain of cats and bats. And at the same time it reaches down to less than 40Hz - lower than the lowest note on a bass guitar. So you really will not miss a thing.



AmpLamp can plug into almost any audio source: televisions, iPods, telephones, laptops, DVD / CD players are all readily played through AmpLamp. It comes with an iPod dock/charging cradle, which is powered by the lamp itself, which means that you'll only need one power socket.



Designed by Dominic Bromley, the AmpLamp appears to be a concept/prototype at the moment (so no price or availability info yet), though judging from all the photography on the manufacturer's website, it looks closer to becoming real than a lot of other gadgets we've seen. We look forward to seeing and hearing it in action.
