British electronic design recognised as best at awards

The top 'Diamond' award for best designed development at this year's British Invention Show was awarded to a British electronics company.

TLAudio beat strong and innovative competition from across the globe in a wide range of fields. The company won the award for its Fatman iTube ValveDock Carbon Edition 2, designed to achieve 'the best possible sound' from an iPod or other audio source. TLAudio's sales director Sarah Yule, said: "Our approach is to combine solid state digital and vacuum tube technology to produce more pleasant and warmer sounds as assessed subjectively by users." The company also manufactures valve based mixing desks which are used in a number of professional and semi-professional studios.
