Yeah it supports the weight of the ipod just fine, as it's centered over the tin nicely. Plus altoids tins are pretty tough. It's not a cmoy though, just a charging dock connector with line out.

Google is your friend. Try "Kevin" "Gilmore" and "Electrostatic". Hint: It's the second link that comes up

The white speakers in the background are my own design when I was still in electronics engineering school many years ago (young and wild ).

This system features 10" bass drivers from Vifa (Denmark), 7" lower mid-range driver from Scanspeak (Denmark), 50mm dome mid-range from MB (Germany) and Panasonic (Japan) ribbon tweeter. The bass below ~ 200 Hz uses active filter while the remaining audio band uses passive filter.
