Portable Entertainment's Friday Pick: Bose SoundDock iPod Speaker System

Friday December 10, 2004
There are iPod speaker systems and then there are iPod Speaker Systems. One of the current kings of this hill is the Bose SoundDock. Connecting the iPod to this multimedia powerhouse of sound is as simple as plugging into the interface jack on the front. The look of the two devices connected together is sleek and something which can easily sit in your living room.

The Bose SoundDock's docking cradle acts as a recharging station for your iPod, so you can get good tunes and a ready to go battery at the same time. The uniform design of the speakers hosts a number of integrated features, including electronic equalization to balance your music as it plays, signal processing for a clear sound at high volumes and shielded lining to prevent interfence from a nearby computer or television.

The Bose SoundDock also comes with a remote which controls basic iPod functions like power, volume and track selection. All of the iPod's features can also be accessed via the player itself while plugged in.

Compare Prices and Shop for the Bose SoundDock.
