The Titan is the PB&J of the clock radio world
A clock radio with separate speakers and display is so lame. It's like taking bread, peanut butter and jelly and deciding to make two different-flavored sandwiches instead of one delicious PB&J. Thankfully, one French company has realized that the great tastes of grille and LED taste great together.
Lexon's Titan clock radio, designed by Jeremy and Adrian Wright of Design Wright, puts the LED lamps behind the speaker grille, blinking out the time with the aesthetics of a dot-matrix display. In this regard it's a lot like the Spotify Radio we saw earlier this month, only a real, shipping product rather than a cool concept.
Other than its lovely design, the radio works like any other clock radio, soothing you to sleep and then yanking you back out of it several hours later. The radio has several presets, you can snooze (what I call "sleep procrastination") and you can jack in some of your own tunes via the 3.5mm socket.
The price? You'll have to go to a real store to find out. You know the cool looking but overpriced gadgets you find in the museum gift shop? A lot of that is from Lexon. You may recognize this radio, for example:
Have I seen you somewhere before?
There is a list of stores on the website if you want to track one down, or you can just try to be happy with your dumb old clock radio, with its separate display and speakers. Good luck with that.
