Title: i-pod speakers Post by: Bedford Red on Thursday, May 22, 2008, 19:01:40 I'm looking to get some really good speakers for my i-pod, money isn't an issue as such.
So, although i'm quite capable of looking around and choosing them, what i would like is if anyone has any, and if so what do you recommend is good/don't touch with a barge-pole? Any problems with them i would like to know about as well? Title: i-pod speakers Post by: Berniman on Thursday, May 22, 2008, 19:14:58 This is the one I have and it rocks!

I've got one that is white and shaped like a bagel, cost me about a ton a couple of years ago, good sound from them in my opinion. http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a99/Edinburgh_STFC/IpodSpeakers.jpg Title: i-pod speakers Post by: Ralphy on Thursday, May 22, 2008, 20:58:35 http://cache.gizmodo.com/assets/resources/2007/07/p_sounddock_l_b.jpg

Title: i-pod speakers Post by: flammableBen on Friday, May 23, 2008, 07:58:35 Oops didn't realise that was so big.
Title: i-pod speakers Post by: Ralphy on Friday, May 23, 2008, 14:34:05 I paid £199 from Comet for my Bose sound dock.
Title: i-pod speakers Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, May 23, 2008, 15:28:58 I bought a pair of £5 Sony travel speakers from Argos. They do the same job at 2.5% of the price.

The Bose sound dock really kicks the sound out, good bass and it sounds superb. Title: i-pod speakers Post by: Bedford Red on Friday, May 23, 2008, 16:13:15 Cool, thanks for all the advice people. I will have a look around at the weekend and treat myself to one.

I never did get the ipod dock stuff, although I don't own an ipod. I think I'd rather play stuff through my hi-fi rather than a small speaker thing. Of course I'm assuming a lot there like already having a hi-fi and having the space for one etc etc Title: i-pod speakers Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, May 23, 2008, 17:07:22 Quote from: "Ralphy" Not quite Sam. The Bose sound dock really kicks the sound out, good bass and it sounds superb. Why do you need to spend so much on something which are basically glorified travel speakers though? And if you're going to use it at home, £200 would get you a set of bookshelf speakers that would do a better job than that portable jobbie. Title: i-pod speakers Post by: axs on Friday, May 23, 2008, 17:10:51 you could get a budget amp and speakers for that.
in fact i've got a hifi rack I need to get rid of if anyone wants it. Title: i-pod speakers Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, May 23, 2008, 20:28:26 How much do you want for it axs?
What colour (black I assume)? Title: i-pod speakers Post by: axs on Friday, May 23, 2008, 20:44:31 bennett got dibs on it, you can fight him for it!
it's on ebay atm but i don't think it'll sell cos it's pickup only. Title: i-pod speakers Post by: axs on Friday, May 23, 2008, 20:44:48 and yes, black.
Title: i-pod speakers Post by: magic8ball on Friday, May 23, 2008, 21:18:29 I know you said that money wasn't really an issue, but if you fancy lowering the budget considerably, and want something that is very portable, I got these a while back. Sound quality is superb for such a small unit. Charges your iPod aswell.
