Altec Lansing IM7
As iPods have grown in popularity, so has the need for a quality home speaker system. There are many speakers available that offer little more than slightly louder tinny headphone speakers.
The Altec Lansing IM7 has set out to shake things up a bit. Firstly, it looks great and will fit into the most up to date living room or kitchen.
Altec have a lot of experience in designing speakers especially for the iPod and they have managed to get it down to an exact science. The Altec Lansing IM7 is a serious contender for the much more expensive Bose Sound dock. In fact, many publications have actually rated it higher than the Bose Sound dock not just because it is cheaper but because it massively outperforms it and is generally more versatile. Most reviews have given it either 4 or 5 out of 5.
It has an in-built sub woofer and you can even take it on holiday as it can take batteries. Battery life is good and will last for 10 hours. It is very easy to fit your iPod into the Altec Lansing IM7 and when inserted, your iPod looks as good as the speaker. It will also charge your iPod when it is plugged into the wall.
The design of the speaker really complements the sleek design of the iPod and it has a slightly cool retro feel. The Altec Lansing IM7 has a handle or there is a shoulder strap available to add to its portability.
It comes with a remote that means that you don’t need to be near the speaker to change the volume or skip tracks. The Altec Lansing IM7 also has an auxiliary in slot in case you want to use a device other than an iPod with it.
The best thing about the Altec Lansing IM7 is the sound quality, it truly is superb. It offers exceptional sound levels and takes your home iPod listening to where it should be. The Altec Lansing IM7 performs extremely well. Even at high volumes the sound is clear and crisp. It offers an impressive deep thumping bass with no distortion at any volume. Speaking of which, it can go so loud you will probably want to steer clear of the loudest volume except for the wildest of parties.
Excellent looks, quality sound and the inbuilt flexibility position this iPod speaker as one of the best on the market.
