Roth Audio MC4 Cocoon Valve Amp / iPod Dock Reviews

The Roth Audio Music Cocoon MC4 is a stunning iPod dock system, sonically and visually stunning, with the inclusion of additional inputs for CD player, laptop etc, so it can be used as a hi-fi amplifier - these are the last "original" Cocoons in the UK, available at a massive discount. This "original" Cocoon offers the same award winning performance as the updated version, but does not charge your iPod/iPhone. If this doesn't bother you, this is a rare chance to get a new one of these at a massively discounted price!

The Cocoon includes 3.5mm jack and phono inputs at the back to connect your mp3 player, laptop, CD player, etc. This means that regardless of the source, the Cocoon can handle it, which immediately makes it more useful than some other iPod docks. The Cocoon is easy to use and includes a full remote control which also controls all iPod functions. Roth Audio even made sure the remote is nice and chunky so that you are less likely to lose it! A nice alternative to a Fatman dock, the Cocoon is an ideal choice for bedsides and countertops, etc. where space is at a premium due to its small size.

Just add speakers and enjoy! We recommend using either Roth Oli 1 or Roth Oli 2 speakers.

Reviews

'..the whole thing feels very well put together. The aluminium top plate and acrylic valve covers have been superbly finished, and the knobs are quite solid. The remote control is tiny but really heavy and sturdy, and offers almost total control over your iPod. It also does source switching, which the iTube doesn’t.' (Stuff Magazine)

'A grown-up solution in a market full of juvenile rivals, the Roth is a must-hear dock.' (What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision Magazine)

'Low frequencies are as warm and comfortable as the valve configuration suggests, but there’s none of the languor you might expect from a valve-based system. Instead, the bassline snaps along, integrated smoothly with the clean, expressive midrange and the crisp, uncluttered top end.' (What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision Magazine)

'it is exceptionally warm and pleasing. Bass is much more natural than on many other iPod amps we've tried and even high frequency sounds like cymbals and hi-hats have a really natural and organic feel to them. Certainly in terms of sheer sound quality we have no complaints about this system.' (Cnet.co.uk)
