We don't need to hear Altec Lansing speakers. The sound quality is among the very best in the business, that's a given. The only thing we need to do is see the speakers and think where they would look good. That's how reliable the brand is.

   
   

The iM600 is Altec Lansing's speaker set designed specifically for the Apple iPod. It's very thin, has a docking function, and can play music at full blast for about seven hours straight on a rechargeable battery. Other features include 12-button Infrared remote control and SFX stereo enhancement button, iM600 folds down to 11" by 1.7" by 6", and weighs 2.1 pounds. Oh, did we say that it has an antenna for instant radio reception?

The iM600 is available now in selected retailers across the nation.
