Now Altec Lansing raises the bar again with an innovative and performance-leading new model. The Altec Lansing iM600 sound system offers stereo sound from dual 2-inch neodymium drivers optimized for high-frequency extension (better highs, in other words). It offers more power and output than any other system in its class and, what’s more, it features another Altec Lansing engineering innovation called the Stereo Field Expander: SFX for short. SFX makes the speakers sound further apart than they really are, giving the user a heightened stereo effect.The iM600 also features a stereo FM radio and can double as a clock radio when plugged in to an electrical outlet (AC adapter included). It includes rechargeable Li-ion batteries and a wireless remote. And it syncs and charges all dockable iPod models.Whether on the go or on your desk or tabletop, the iM600 resets the expectations for features and performance in a sound solution for the iPod.

Well thought out product @ good price

"This is a great value in an iPod accessory. No question that it does not quite have the overall sound quality of the larger and more expensive units, such as the $300 (overpriced) Bose system. But it has some advantages even over that system, particularly the fact that it will run on batteries for many hours. Highly portable. Does not have great bass, and you will have to set your iPod to bass enhancement in..." Read Full Review »

Not sure what that meant...? Anyway, my daughter used it for maybe a week, and then I..." Read Full Review »
