    iPod speakers recommendations......

    Apologies if this is a repost.

    I'm in the market for some speakers for my video iPod. Upper limit is £150 and I wouldnt mind if it had a CD player or radio on it.

    Im interested in people who actually have decent speakers rather than being pointed in the direction of a site that has hundreds of them!

      I got the Bose setup. Pretty solid sound, though I wish there was more bass. Good overall tones ... from highs to lows. I paid 299.99

              I know you're looking for speakers but I just had to share that these are fucking BRILLIANT. Just heard them this past weekend at the bose store and it's one of the best headphones I've heard to date.

                  I had those for a while, they're extremely comfortable and it did sound better than I expected, given the kinda bad rep Bose has among 'audiophiles.'

                      NICE. But for that price I could get a nice set of M-audio BX-8's with 8 inch subs to get better low end...which is what EDM is in need of.

                      I have too been thinking of getting a pair of those Bose headsets. I had a guy I flew with one time who had a pair of the bigger second generation ones and i put them on and all I could hear was a low hum. But alas I COULD still hear the guy talking...But I do have really fucking good hearing.

                                  naa jenks, you have to listen to that one, the bass was as tight as I like it and so were the highs. it completely drowned out the exterior noise AND they were comfy as shit. not to mention, these ones (I imagine they're a new design) look great.

                                              Nice in ears pieces. But I bet they still fall out of the sweet spot in your ears where you get the best sounds. I really get frustrated by my regular phones they give to you. Time to upgrade.

                                                  Didn't get rid of them, they were on loan 'cos I reviewed them for Singapore's TimeOut. I was hoping they'd forget about it, because those headphones are great for office listening. The soft comfortable pads and just-nice grip really sold it for me.

                                                  Yeah the bass was surprisingly punchy and not boomy. The headphones really surprised me.

                                                      but at $179 a pair, don't think I'll be getting them anytime soon.

                                                          That's the problem I guess ... at that price, you can probably pick up something equally sweet if not better, that doesn't cost the Bose name.
