Everyone loves Apple's portable iPod digital music player, and taking music with you on the road can be a life saver. But you probably don't always feel like putting your headphones on, especially once your back at your hotel room--or if you're organizing the garage or simply making dinner. Altec Lansing has created a headphones-free portable listening alternative: the inMotion powered speaker system, the first portable audio system designed expressly for use with iPods. With its compact design, ultra-low battery power consumption, powerful class-D amplifier, patented MaxxBass technology, and even a built-in iPod dock, inMotion gives you performance you'd never have thought possible from a portable audio system. inMotion features four full-range, custom-designed neodymium micro drivers (two per speaker) for clear audio output. Using principles borrowed from the professional audio world, inMotion also delivers incredible, natural-sounding bass at frequencies far below those normally possible from small speakers. No bigger than a trade paperback book, inMotion turns your iPod into a platform for convenient, headphone-free listening anytime, any place. Its sound quality rivals that of systems many times its size. Sleek in design like the iPod itself, the inMotion system matches the iPod color scheme and features a built-in docking bay located between its speakers. When docked inMotion's iPod bay, your music player can perform all the same data transfer and synchronization functions possible via Apple's standard, free-standing iPod dock. inMotion even takes advantage of iPod's alarm feature to create a fully functioning alarm clock that plays wake-up music of your choice--perfect for travel or dormitory use. Other convenient features include a minijack 0.125-inch headphone jack for private listening; an auxiliary stereo minijack input for hookup with other audio devices such as portable CD players, laptops, older iPods, and other MP3 players (an interconnect for this purpose is included); and built-in, flush-mounted power and volume controls. The secret to inMotion's strikingly deep bass is a combination of specially designed neodymium micro drivers and MaxxBass technology. Founded on the principle of the "missing fundamental," MaxxBass generates a specific set of harmonics in response to bass input; the brain then interprets these harmonics as the intended bass sound. The technique is used in commercial audio systems for restaurants, high-end retail environments, clubs, and other venues where exceptional fidelity is essential, but where large speakers or subwoofers are impractical. inMotion's Class D amplification provides maximum sound with minimum power consumption. Smaller, cooler, and more efficient than other amplifiers, inMotion's onboard amp can support up to 24 hours of continuous playback on just four AA batteries (not included). For desktop or other indoor use, inMotion also includes an AC power supply that recharges the iPod anytime it sits in the inMotion docking bay. What's in the Box inMotion sound system, 0.125-inch minijack-to-minijack stereo analog audio interconnect, protective case, 10 GB/15 GB iPod docking spacer, docking connector travel cover, iPod-charging AC power adapter, user's manual, quick-connect card, and warranty information.

Perfect for using iPod in your office or dorm room as a player.

You can also use with iPods, CD players, MP3 players or other auxiliary audio input using the. The sound quality? Not quite as good as your stereo speakers at home, but it's really small, I think the sound is quite acceptable for the size of the speakers. Note that a newer model was just released, which is even smaller and looks a little cooler. So, to shop around before you decide on the version you want. 140 of 151 customers this review helpful.

Simple, portable, functional and Sounds Good by David Levine Got my wife an iPod 20GB for Valentine's Day, and she hears all the time when it was suggested to present Mother's Day, he would have these speakers. I have an Apple Store nearby, so I stopped and had them on display. I was afraid that they are so small (just like the other two iPods on both sides of the center) that would sound bad, but actually so much good. We got in this morning and immediately put them up. Runs on 4 AA batteries, but I imagine that he would use the included AC adapter to accept most of the time if we bring them somewhere where there may be a place to put them in, was amazed at how compact group was conceived, and speakers were missing until I showed how to flip open. They also have a short power adapter to connect an external device to the speakers, and a case lined to store your speakers when not use.S How "connected" to your iPod in, turn on, press play and it worked like a charm that really sounded good. He moved the unit to the kitchen, put the volume half way and perhaps could be here all the ground that the stove is on. Lower set, you can play without disturbing others. It is also important to her (or it was when she was always taking everything) is that the placement of the device. Maybe now with the speakers y.
