    Altec Lansing's inMotion iM7 boom box is for iPods, and iPods only, and it is a great way to share your digital audio collection with everyone. The iM7 is a powered speaker and docking system for all iPods, including the nano and mini. In addition to providing a high-quality speaker array, when connected to AC power, the iM7 charges your iPod. When AC isn't available, the iM7 runs on eight D batteries but doesn't charge your digital audio player. Read more

    CNET gave it an 8 out of 10 (Excellent) and said: "The Altec Lansing InMotion iM7 is a solid audio performer in just about every way. The system gave us no noticeable background hiss, provided crystal-clear highs, and delivered dynamic sound across the board." Sleek Design This is, hands down, the best portable speaker system I have yet to hear for the iPod. The design is sleek, the sound is huge and clear and the ability to connect to a monitor for video/photos is just... Read more

    This unit will invariably be compared to the $300 Bose Sound Dock because of the $50 difference in price. Undoubtedly, the Bose unit has a cleaner sound, especially in the middle, all through the volume range. Unless you are replacing a home stereo system, I would easily recommend this unit first. It is more versatile because of its portability. In addition, its s-video and Composite (RCA) output and audio input make it a much more compelling product. Units ordered... Read more

    Normally, I do not buy the electronics for my household. I was a bit apprehensive when it came to making this purchase. Thanks to several online reviews, I was able to feel confident with this purchase. Thankfully, my husband truly enjoyed this system. The sound quality is spectacular! I had planned on ordering a Bose system, because it is such a well-known brand. We are definitely NOT disappointed. We love the look and overall performance of this product. Read more

    I'm a big bose fan and went to buy the bose IPOD player. I listened to the two, same song, side by side in the store. No question, everyone that listened agreed. The altec has a fuller richer sound. PLUS it can run on batteries for the once a yr picnic. AND it has a nice remote w/ separate vol, bass and treble controls. Plus it's $50 cheaper. Hard to beat it.

    This product is a great way to carry my Altec Lansing radio. Before I just continued to switch it back and forth from one hand to the next but now I can carry it to the pool, the beach, the park or in my home with no hassle. Read more
