- Altec Lansing inMotion im7: thumb up! I got it from Amazon for $189. Big sound that fills a big room easily. The quality of sound is comparable to Bose sounddock but the price is a lot easier. Innovative tube design. Universal power adapter. Only issue – a bit too big.
- Altec Lansing inMotion im11: thumb down! $99 is reasonalbe, if it works. The sound is OK in the first half of volume range. It gets progressively more distortion moving up the range. The bigger problem: it shuts it self off randomly after a few minutes with the iPod still running! Returned!
- iHome IH5: big thumb up! Same $99 price, but much nicer than im11. The sound is very clear and fairly rich across almost the whole volume range – an 8 out of the 10 compare to Bose and im7. But the bonus is the multitude of functionalities – alarm clock, volume display, big volume nob, nice three-level LED brightness, nice and functional buttons in additional to remote, FM/AM radio, etc. Only issue here is the lack of universal power supply (110V only).
