We're well acquainted with both connected bookshelf audio systems and colorful speakers -- seeing both in one place, though, is still a rarity. Yamaha
reckons the two aren't mutually exclusive. Its MCR-B142 and MCR-042
both put out 30W of sound taken from a 30-pin Apple device dock, USB,
aux-in or old-fashioned CDs, but they also come in 10 different colors;
anyone who's wanted a purple stereo to match their crushed velvet decor
will be right at home. Both the B142 and a more subdued, desktop-sized
TSX-B232 will also receive audio through Bluetooth, and a free iOS app
lets us steer the two systems without leaving the couch. These ship
later this month along with the B232's wireless-free sibling, the
TSX-132. Just be ready to pay a premium -- the roster starts at $400 for
the MCR-042, and scales up to $550 for the TSX-B232.
