Amazon.com Product Description
With 17 total watts of power, the compact and portable Altec Lansing iM600 Sound System gives you full optimized stereo sound from dual two-inch neodymium drivers, so you can enjoy your favorite iPod tunes at home or work. It features a built-in FM receiver, as well as an on-board rechargeable Lithium-ion battery that provides over seven hours of battery life before it needs recharging. The iM600 also boasts an Altec Lansing engineering innovation called the Stereo Field Expander, or SFX, which makes the speakers sound further apart than they actually are, resulting in a heightened stereo effect.
For added convenience, the stereo FM radio can double as a clock radio with station presets, LCD display and telescopic antenna for clear reception; simply plug it into an electrical outlet (the AC adapter is included). Superior bass enhancement technology means you can enjoy quality bass without a subwoofer, and the input jack makes it a snap to connect a second device, including CD, DVD and MP3 players. There's even a composite video out for playing your videos and photos for iPod on most TVs, while the built-in iPod dock allows for quick and easy data transfer and recharge. Additionally, this model syncs and charges all dockable iPod models.
Lightweight and easy to move, the iM600 conveniently folds up to 11.0 x 6.0 x 1.7 inches (WxHxD), and weighs just over two pounds, so you can truly take it anywhere. It comes with a wireless remote and AC adapter, and is fully compatible with iPod models that have the alarm clock and sleep timer features.

Nice little portable audio system for iPod.......2007-12-26
I bought one of these for myself several months ago. It is a bargain for the price. Got a second one for my daughter this Christmas
Too Good To Be True!.......2007-12-26
Just received for Xmas after reviewing all of the Bose, Harmon Kardon, etc. on the market. The sound of this product is unbeatable and the price is half (or less) of the other audio systems.
AND....this product has a built-in 6-8 hour re-chargeable battery, to boot. Would recommend to all if you can get for $150 or less. Absolutely worth the money to make your iPod sing and charge.
Good features, ok sound........2007-12-25
I love the rechargable battery feature on this devise, it is working ok with my 160GB ipod classiv, the remote is ok too. Sound could probsbly be better. Anyway, it's good.
Good Sound, FM is a good add-on.......2007-12-25
This unit gives excellent sound, inspite of not having a subwoofer. Quality is good even at loud volume. Infact, it seems that the more I use it, the sound keeps getting better.
The only bad part is the cradle for keeping the ipod, which does not "hold" the ipod properly. The iPod only rests on it, and any mechanical shock might cause problems. You need to be extremely careful with that. (This is the only reason I've given it 4 stars, not 5)
Awesome.......2007-12-24
This product was reviewed by a a prominent magazine who rated it above more expensive units, and I agree wholeheartedly. The sound is much better than you would expect from such a small and compact unit, and it looks great too. I bought a second unit for my office. it folds up for compact storage and transport. I can recommend this unit without reservation.

Alta fidelidad portátil para el iPod.......2007-12-25
I'm proceeding in spanish because there are so many good reviews in english for this product.
La iM5 es una unidad muy compacta, presentada en un cómodo maletín en donde se puede llevar todo el conjunto, incluyendo al iPod. En mi caso, lo uso con un iPod Nano 3G 8GB y funciona perfectamente, aún sin la base de ajuste que debería colocar.
El sonido es de alta calidad, suficiente para un ambiente de unos 20 m2 con un volumen bastante adecuado. Claro está, no es como para hacer una fiesta, pero si para ambientar una cena, reunión social u oficina. Toda la gama de sonidos se escuchan con claridad y sin distorsión, bajos, medios y agudos, incluso cuando se usa en exteriores con las 4 baterías AA.
Great speakers but poor durability.......2007-12-20
Got these speakers based on size, reviews and price. Used them right away and they sounded GREAT! Problem occurred only one week after use. My husband and I traveled out of state and took the speakers. Once we got unpacked we went to play our ipod and the on button flickered on but did not turn on. (must note that the speakers were carried on the plane, not checked). Not sure if it was a short in the power cord or what? Needless to say, the manufacturer is sending us a new one and I really hope we have no problems for I love the speakers!
Goood.......2007-12-19
I bought it as a gift for someone else, but after test-driving it, it sounds pretty decent. I haven't played with it too much, but it seems good overall.
great features, but problematic popping sound.......2007-12-17
I really liked the features on this speaker -- the international plug set and that it would charge my iPod -- and those features are great. The plugs are very well designed. However, two successive units made a popping sound, sometimes quite loud and frequent, when playing some (not all) files. The vendor took the first one back perfectly happily, but after the second one, I got fed up and just kept it because I wanted the plugs and because it doesn't always make the sound. But because of the popping I will probably get a different speaker unit to use around the house.
Do NOT purchase this or any other rodut from Factory Depot.......2007-12-11
I have no idea if the product is any good but after waiting weeks for a delivery I found out they can't ship. Don't send email as to why and don't answer the phone. What's even worse is that Amazon will not step in and offer a product solution.
They offer my $$ back but too late to get it delivered and wrapped and off to my son.
Bummer.
Not going to be using Amazon again

Amazon.com Product Description
Made for sitting stylishly in your office or living room, the svelte inMotion IM500 speaker dock for iPod nano is also made for easy portability. Amazingly flat, the speakers panel folds flat onto the integrated iPod docking station to become just 0.7 inches thin (17mm) for easy transport. It also weighs just 12 ounces, and comes with its own protective carry pouch. Despite its size, the IM500 is no wilting flower thanks to its innovative speaker cone design and MaxxBass technology, which delivers deeper, richer, more natural bass frequencies.
Amazingly thin and light (just 12 ounces) for easy portability.
|
The IM500 flips open to create a stand at the press of a button, revealing the back that includes a mini USB 2.0 connection for syncing your iPod to your PC, as well as a special 2.5mm auxillary line-in port for connecting other digital audio players (such as larger iPods) or portable CD players. (The IM500 comes with a 3.5mm adapter cable to accommodate players with connections of this size.) The front of the unit includes the iPod nano dock as well as a power button and volume up/down buttons.
Sync your iPod to your PC while it sits in the dock, and connect other audio players via auxiliary port.

Plugged into a power source or roaming free on battery power, the iM500 gives you complete freedom using an efficient, compact class D amplifier for maximum power. When using the included AC power adapter, your iPod nano will automatically recharge when docked with the iM500. It's powered by 6 AAA batteries (not included), which provide up to 8 hours of battery life. If no audio is detected for about three minutes, the iM500 will automatically shut down.
The broad-faced speaker cones provide a generous surface area that drive an impressively big sound from such a compact speaker system. The integrated MaxxBass technology isn't your standard bass boost feature. It uses a patented psychoacoustic algorithm that enable you to hear bass far below the physical limitation of the speakers by taking advantage of the latest research in how sound is perceived. With MaxxBass, you can hear frequencies up to 1.5 octaves below what is generated.

Customer Reviews:
Great sound for your iPod Nano, very reliable, great price.......2007-12-16
I've owned the IM500 for over a year and it is much more than a great iPod Nano amplifier. Sure, I use it for my iPod but the AUX input jack also makes it a great speaker system for your laptop computer. It folds down flat and fits perfectly in my laptop case. So whenever I'm on the road, this is the sound system I use for DVD movies, Internet gaming, or iPod play in my hotel room. The sound is wonderful with built-in bass boosting, and it's always worked like a champ.
I read the Amazon review by the person who said their iPod "fried" when they first plugged it into this unit. That seems very unlikely to me. How would a power surge get past the IM500's AC transformer? I suspect that was a defective iPod about to die when they plugged it in.
Ignore the rest, this is best Nano dock for the price, and perfect for your laptop computer too.
Good Item.......2007-12-11
This audio system sounds really great for how thin it is. It looks really nice as well. I bought it as a gift and was not disappointed.
Great Product. Even works with the new iPod Classic.......2007-12-04
I just bought this product a couple of days ago and so far its a great product.
Pros: Charges the Ipod, Great sound for such a small speaker, Compact and Concise, Very Portable, Easy to Operate, Even works with my Ipod Classic. So if you don't have an ipod nano, it still will work with your ipod.
Cons:Kind of hard to press the power button, It Takes 6 AAA batteries.
Other than that, If i were you, I would go out and buy this product instantly.
This is a great little portable iPod Speaker Dock!.......2007-11-03
The Altec Lansing inMotion IM500 Portable Audio System for iPod is perfect for my needs for a small (it's really tiny), powerful iPod (and other audio) speaker system. It's battery powered (you can use 6 rechargeable or regular alkaline AAA batteries), or you can opt for the included AC adapter.
Sound is phenomenal, and I can use this with the 2G Nano OR with the new 3G Nano with video OR the new iPod Touch with video! You can listen to music or watch a video with full audio while it's docked. Granted, the 3G nano screen is small, but since Apple has packed the screen with over 160 pixels per inch, it's amazingly viewable at close range. You could also theoretically watch videos on the Touch, but you have to turn the IM500 on its side for that. It works but is awkward and doesn't stand up on its own.
The unit comes with an audio plug which allows you to connect other MP3 players or gadgets. I can also use this with a 2G iPod Shuffle as well as a Sirius Stiletto 100 portable Satellite Radio (using high-quality WiFi streaming mode) to create a totally portable Satellite Radio speaker system! Very cool!
Good sound, great portability.......2007-10-31
Bought this unit for the express purpose of having music available in the hotel room when traveling. For portability it can't be beat: about the size of a thin travel guide and packs easily in a backpack or suitcase. Sound is quite appealing for its size and purpose. Impressive bass, good clarity. Overall I would highly recommend this product. Only complaint (kind of anal but I'm an engineer) is the 2G Nano does not fit properly on the unit. The 2G connector is offset an additional 0.125 inches or so causing the iPod to sit off center in the unit's recessed area. Does not affect performance, just looks like a poor design.

I love it!.......2007-10-16
I was looking for a long time for portable speakers for my ipod, and most of the ones I found were way over-priced. I actually considered buying the circular ones that have great sound, but i really wanted something i can carry around. The thing about this, it's not just for an ipod, it's for anything that has a plug for headphones, I even use it for my computer when I watch videos because they get pretty loud. Surprisingly my batteries have not died as soon as I thought they would. It comes with a carrying case. I love that they are so small, it was definitely worth the price!
Logitech iPod Speakers.......2007-08-23
Very portable, good quality sound . . . important to adjust volume on the iPod (at least 3/4 max) to get best volume from the unit.
Puts out great sound, but..........2007-08-03
...be sure you know what you're NOT getting. These speakers do not connect to your iPod via the iPod dock connector; you have to plug in the provided cable to the headphone jack. And this does not charge your iPod while playing, although the instructions conveniently show you how to connect it to a computer to do so, in case you never figured that out before!
Again, great sound for the price, but the pictures imply features that are not included. Caveat emptor!
eASY.......2007-06-02
VERY EASY TO OPERATE. pERFECT FOR A HOLIDAY TREAT , EITHER IN THE HOTEL ROOM OR JUST LOUD ENOUGH ON THE BEACH WITHOUT DISTURBING OTHERS
works great.......2007-05-14
quick review, i purchased this item specifically for vacation, and to fill a hotel room the speakers are just fine, now if you are relying on this product to replace some nicer stereo equipment then you will be dissapointed, but overall solid execution. One negative is the nano doesnt exactly fit snug into the holder, other than that all else ok.

Compact and highly portable, Logitech's mm32 speakers are the perfect travel companion for your iPod or MP3 player.

The system's matching quad neodymium microdrivers, meanwhile, produce crisp, satisfying audio whether you're listening in a hotel room or lounging at the park. And to make things easier while traveling, Logitech added metal grilles to protect the drivers while throwing in a hard- shell carrying case.
Other details include a sleek black housing and an auxiliary input that's compatible with older iPods, MP3 players, and any other device with a standard 3.5 mm headphone jack.

Customer Reviews:
Loud but Bad Buy.......2007-11-21
These speakers definitely have volume, but they are far from practical. The main reason is that there is no charger built in to the speaker. In order to charge it, you have to wrap a regular Ipod charger into the bottom, pull it up, and then connect it to the Ipod. When I plug in my Ipod, I'm not trying to perform surgery. I returned this model and got the more modern Logitech. That at least has a charger. That one has its own problems, but that's for another review.
Eh... it's OK.......2007-10-19
Okay... this isn't great for my type of music which mostly consists of bass type music like breaks, hip hop, latin, electronic and trance. This is good if you listen to things like easy listening or jazz but for anything else i wouldn't recommend this.
Loved it!.......2007-08-25
I thought that the system was excellent. It was exactly what I was looking for. I have a Zune and, unfortunately, they do not have enough products that support it yet. Hopefully, they will release some supporting accessories soon. In the meantime, this is an excellent external speaker system. I was able to take it onto the beach on vacation and enjoy my music. The volume is little low, but not so low that we couldn't enjoy it. I was able to use it for both my Zune and my sons' Ipod. The price was very reasonable. Love the size of it. The carry case is great too. Not alot of extra adjustments, ie: treble or bass. I would highly recommend it.
Great sound and price.......2007-08-23
This is a very good sounding player for my iPod. The shipping was very fast.
What is is, a great portable player.......2007-08-22
Sound is quite acceptable for a portable unit. I have taken it to the park and sat out in my yard listening to this unit. Volume is good. I even put it on my night stand and watched downloaded TV shows. I used rechargable batteries and have yet to need to recharge them although I charged them once for the heck of it.
The case stores the AC unit in one end and the player in the case easily fits in a lap top bag. Can't wait to take it on business trips.
I wanted a quality portable unit and I got one!
It can play any mp3 player.

Amazon.com Product Description
Ideal for dorm rooms and backyard barbecues, the iLive 2.1-channel boombox packs a solid array of features into an affordable package. The primary selling point of the IBCD3816DT is its built-in iPod docking station, which not only plays the iPod video, iPod photo, iPod, iPod mini, iPod nano, and iPod shuffle, but also charges the unit while you listen. Users will also dig the included remote control, which lets folks operate all of the aforementioned iPods (except the iPod shuffle) from a distance. It's perfect for parties or lounging on the couch, as you needn't amble up to the unit to adjust the volume or skip a track. The boombox also includes a slot-loading CD player (with support for CD-R/RW formats) and an AM/FM tuner, along with several intuitive knobs and buttons for quick and easy system control.
The boombox owes its smooth audio performance to its pair of stereo speakers and accompanying dual side-firing subwoofers, which deliver thumping bass that's far deeper than most portable iPod speaker systems. In addition, the IBCD3816DT accommodates both older iPods and other audio devices--such as MP3 players, personal game systems, and personal CD players--through its auxiliary line input. Add in a video output for playing videos and slideshows on a connected TV and you have a great boombox for the modern media landscape. Other details include a sleek white housing, four preset equalizer settings, an easy-to-read backlit LCD display with a digital clock, and a stereo headphone jack.
The boombox, which runs on either eight D batteries (not included) or AC/DC power (an AC cord is included, but the 12-volt DC car adapter is sold separately), measures 17.5 by 7.4 by 7.6 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a limited 90-day warranty.
What's in the Box
IBCD3816DT boombox, remote control, AC cord, shoulder strap, dock inserts for iPod nano and iPod mini, auxiliary line-in cord, user's manual.
Customer Reviews:
Excellent value for the money.......2007-12-17
I just bought this for my daughter's birthday. $79 at Kohl's. I did a lot of research including going to the Apple store. My daugher wanted this for her iPod 2nd. gen Nano. She also wanted AM/FM and CD. Quite a tall order for something I didn't want to spend too much on. I was going to get the Logitech for $129 which sounds good but doesn't have the CD or radio. I will have to admit to not listening to this before buying it, but after getting it home and listening to it I am very happy with the purchse and my daughter is thrilled. It even comes with Aux. in jack and a USB for older iPod Shuffles. The remote is a bonus but doesn't work from very far away. As for the hiss, I'm 43 and can't hear it but my 10 year old tells me she can hear it. Frankly, nothing out there touches this for the money. In fact if you get a Kohl's credit card you get another 20% off. The fact that this has so many features, a nice back lit blue display and pretty decent sound I recommend it. Sure, if you want to spend $300 on a Bose do it, but if not this is a good buy.
Probably won't last long.......2007-08-06
My daughter received this item as a birthday gift a year ago. She used it very little. She was never happy with it because it's cumbersome and it takes up too much space in her very-limited dorm room. Her dad and I decided to buy it from her. We learned that the CD player has stopped working after only one year. Also, the sound quality is not optimal because the speakers hiss if the volume is not turned up loud. Since the CD player ceased functioning, I have a feeling other features will fail shortly. We are not pleased--and I would not recommend this item.
Don't Buy This If You're Looking for Good Quality!.......2007-07-22
I purchased the iHome thinking that I was getting such a good deal on a great sounding portable iPod docking station and boom box. I was looking for something portable that I would be able to take with me into the bathroom for those long showers. I was pleased with it at first, but it has just become even more and more annoying. I love the fact that not only does it have the radio, but also CD player, and AUX capabilities. There are more flaws though than there are pros. The biggest flaw is the hissing noise it is known for making. Even when no iPod is connected or anything, there is a loud hissing noise that can be heard. It is quite annoying. Also, the speakers aren't very high quality. The bass has to be turned all the way down for the system to have at least some clarity in the music. When the bass is all the way up, you can forget about it. It just sounds like a big, loud, clattering noise that is rather annoying. I wouldn't purchase this if you're looking for a good quality iPod player, spend the extra money and buy something nicer with a better sound. If you're using it for small periods of time, such as in the shower, it's a good buy.
Constant static sound reminds me of the 1970's AM radios.......2007-06-24
The static sound is constant no matter what volume or if you're playing from CD, IPOD or Radio. Radio reception is bad too. These are easy things to get right. The manufacturer must have had to cut some pretty serious corners to foul this up.
Awful product!.......2007-05-28
I received this as a Christmas gift December 2006. February 2007, it stopped working completely. Will not turn on, eject the CD that's currently in it, or play anything -- radio, iPod, CD, etc. I do not have the receipt anymore, and am going to have to trash it. I do NOT recommend this product, nor any other products by this manufacturer.

defective.......2007-11-04
I have been trying to get an RMA from the seller to return this item.
They do not answer any messages.
The item does not work at all. I would never recommend this seller to anyone
I doubt I will ever get my money back. What a RIPOFF!!!!!!
It was purchased fromANTonline. Read their feedback first.
OK, but very hard to use.......2007-10-26
OK, first, the good:
The build quality is pretty good, and the sound is good, the radio works well, and it interfaces easily with the iPod.
The bad?
The controls are HORRIBLE. The buttons have no feedback to know if you have pressed them, the alarm is really difficult to set, and very hard to know whether you have set it correctly - it's a crap-shoot to know whether the alarm will go off in the morning. I would not recommend this as an alarm-clock, it's a pretty good iPod dock though.
Works fine, but poor design.......2007-09-08
I got this alarm clock because it looked like it had a support for the ipod. Reviews for other models say the connection breaks off over time, so I thought this would be a better design. It actually turns out the little back support doesn't come in contact with my ipod. Not a big deal, but slightly disappointing. The other thing is the light display. It is pointed at an angle that makes it tough to read on any surface equal to or higher than my bed. Similarly, the lighting on the time display is horrible. The back - light is way too bright. I have decided to keep the light off and use my old alarm clock for the clock. The ipod functions and alarm works really well so I am not going to return it, but I probably would buy something else if I had a chance to do it over.
really nice.......2007-06-11
very well made speaker. the dimmer could be a little less bright, but the sound is great. it is surprisingly not lacking bass. it keeps my ipod charged, and it is not too big to fit on a nightstand.
i wish it came in black too. or maybe it does....
nice job coby- not many flaws here!!
and certaily worth the money. shipped in about 3 days.

Worth it........2007-10-27
This is a pretty good speaker especially for the price. The sound and volume are good, too, especially given its size. Simple, easy, extremely portable. Slightly heavy because it takes a AA battery.
One thing I've noticed is that after the first use, I heard some static noise when my BlackBerry was getting messages. After that, I thought it was broken because I wasn't getting any sound. I kept it away from my BlackBerry and after a while when I tried it for the second time, it was making sound and worked like the first time. And then I read the review at Amazon and someone said that it needs to be turned OFF when not being used. Maybe that was the cause of the static noise. We'll see.
Dang Battery Switch..........2007-09-23
There's a lot of opportunities I've taken to use this, from proposing to my fiancee (arranging your favorite song for the middle of nowhere is kinda difficult) to playing inspirational music prior to flying a mission. The price and size are excellent, and the volume output is worthy. My only qualm is that the battery does tend to drain when not using it - though this might be to the uncanny nature of the power switch moving to "on" in my flight bag. Absolutely worth it though.
Not worth the money at all.......2007-09-13
It's indeed very portable and super light in weight even when including the 1 AA batrery. But I totally agree with one of the above reviewers regarding the volume. "The sound is small like mosquito" as what we would say in the Chinese language. And the quality of the sound is very poor, too. With same amount of the money, you can buy other potable speakers with much better quality. I am browsing now to get a better one.
Can't play loud enough.......2007-08-15
Good idea for a product, but even at my loudest ipod 30Gb setting, the speakers are not loud enough. It is stereo, but tinny sounding. It's a fun gadget, but I hardly ever use it.
It Really works Sounds nice........2007-08-06
This is a tiny speaker product. It does what it is supposed to do! Good clear sound. Battery life is ok - it fills a nice niche - you can always get a bigger heavier product -- but this is a prize for its size.

Really really wanted to keep this, but..........2007-12-27
I received this as a surprise Christmas gift and I was thrilled. It appeared to be a perfect bedside alarm clock. As others here have mentioned though, probably the biggest strike against this product is the inability to preset the alarm volume. Others have mentioned they thought the external FM antenna was ugly. I'm just glad there was one as my favorite station has a weak signal.
This unit appears to do all, charge ipod, dock, wake up modes, three brightness levels, two alarm clocks, snooze button, compact appealing design. It is with great regret that I will probably have to return this unit due to the Alarm clock volume problem.
There appears to be no equal products. This little Philips unit definately struck an emotional chord with me, initially. Its going to be hard to box it up.
Shuts off after two minutes.......2007-12-15
I purchased this unit a week ago. The sound was great for the price. However, it won't stay on. My husband and I have tried many ways to get the unit to power on and stay on. We called Philips Customer service and they said to exchange it at the store. Did that yesterday. The new unit does the same thing. I have the iPod Classic. Don't know if it's a compatibiliy issue or if I'm just unlucky. Wish it worked! The sound is rich for the price.
Yes and No.......2007-12-14
I like the design and it works well with my Ipod. I just cannot believe that you can't adjust the volume when using the alarm. How bizarre! How many other alarm clocks have that problem? And the display (at dim) is still too bright. I have always thought of Phillips being a quality brand and I am really surprised to find these problems with the unit. I am unfortunately tempted to return it.
Compatible w/ the new Nano?.......2007-12-12
Does anyone know if this model it compatible with the new iPod Nano 4 gig?
great for office use.......2007-12-07
I bought this to listen to in my cubicle and it's great! It plays well at a low level and has good sound especially when playing my ipod. It has an antenna attached also which is something I need to get good radio reception in my office building. Overall, a great buy.

Fabulous portable speaker system for iPod.......2007-10-05
I ordered this yesterday and upgraded to overnight shipping for 3.99 (advantage of being a Prime member). A Bose it isn't, but for the price and what I need it for it fits the bill.
If you're looking for a portable system that travels nicely and don't need top of the line audio quality this is for you! Don't get me wrong, the sound is pretty darn good, I just mention it for those whose top priority is sound. (Although I'm sure the price makes that pretty obvious).
The sytstem does fold much like a portfolio as another reviewer mentioned, and it has simple to use rubber function buttons on the sides. I love how the remote has its own compartment on the back for convenient storage.
This guy will easily fit into an overnight bag for travel taking up very little space. Oh, it also has 3 different adaptors for AC use in different countries.
