This candy-bar shaped mp3 player from Bang & Olufsen may not have iPod's stylish good looks but audiophiles would embrace the music quality from the BeoSound 6. A deviation from previously more eccentric-looking models (for example, the BeoSound 2 and BeoSound 3), the BeoSound 6 is conspicuously minimalist, even understated in design. Clad in stainless steel, scratch-resistant glass and silicone rubber keypad, BeoSound also comes with a leather case. With a high performance signal-to-noise ratio built on a robust Samsung platform, the BeoSound 6 balances music nuances and obliterates noise to reproduce a more natural sound. The B & O earphones, that come with it boasts bass-optimization features and its foam rubber covers prevents music "leak". And with approximately 40 hours of playing time, the longest of any music player on the market today, the BeoSound 6 makes for an excellent travel companion.
