    Distinctive yet tasteful desktop speakers are hard to come by; I was always slightly jealous of my Mac friends and their cool Harmon Kardon Soundsticks (not that they were only for Mac, but you know what I mean), since the best PC speakers from Logitech and Klipsch have always been… not ugly, certainly, but not stylish, either.

    Now, I’ll be the first to admit that these speakers from Krator aren’t for everyone, but at least they’ve got a definite design reference, bold lines, and a unique look.

    They actually revealed a few different speaker sets over at CeBIT, but Akihabara News has the pictures and info, and I’d hate to just duplicate their content here. Will we ever see these speakers stateside? Anything’s possible, I guess.
