iNUKE BOOM! sounds like me in the morning. anyways you guys cant beat american shit load of ideas. The thing actually looks like a nuclear bomb...i wonder if japan saw it in the sky? any other system in the world has to be bigger than the washington memorial. im just say'in.
monster beatbox is the loudest but Zeppelin Air has the best sound and it does not crack up at high volumes but if you want to play really loud so is monster beatbox a better choice
@ande320 The ik501 is much louder and delivers much more thump than the beatbox. My ikick was over a year and a half old when I tested it against a brand new beatbox that i returned the next day.
@LeBubbleBoy it is too large to be ranked as an ipod dock then you might as well buy large floor speakers with subwoofer that sounds much better for the money.
zeppelin air sounds better than the Geneva Sound System XL, for the money.
Geneva Sound System XL will cost five times more than zeppelin air
B & W Zeppelin air may not be the most powerful iPod speaker. but easily the best sound. compared with the speakers I have tested monsters beatbox, Bose SoundDock 10, B & O BeoSound 8th BeoSound 8 is the one that comes closest zeppelin air but it is way too expensive. zeppelin air may be expensive for most users. but sounds so much better than everyone else. monsters beatbox is also a good choice if you do not have much money. it can play really loud.
@ande320 Arcam rCube sounds f'ing great. I heard a few in an audio store in SF. The Bose and Zeplin sounded like they had a blanket over them when I did an A,B test in various locations in various rooms. The Arcam product is pricey but a much better thought out and delivered product.. Check it out yourself before getting anything else.
I got one and I was expecting a lot and it exceeded my expectations! Clear sound and really nice deep bass. I can hear it through out the whole house.
I still don't know why this was not sold in the US!
its impossible to determine the "Best" docking station. I personally have a Kicker iKick 500 which I love to death.
But the three go-to brands would be Bose, Kicker, and Pioneer. All 3 offer superb docking stations for around the $500 mark. You can't go wrong really, no matter which docking station you buy from these 3 companies, you'll be very happy with it.
140 watts. is not power ful, my ipoid dock is rated at 405 watts. this is rediculous and a 5" subwoofer should just not be used. this is pathetic. the loudest ipod dock in the world. i am shocked they could evan post this herendi :(
@Crodon then explain why the stereo in my car is rated at 2,000 watt, and my strereo at home is 405 watts. exact same set up, 2 coaxials and 2 subwoofers, but the car is much louder. look at wooferfreak's comment. that dock is pathetic.
@jvcrvb90 Agree with Crodon, more watts doesn't mean louder sound. Speaker box design, speaker specs (db's with 1w input) and amp design all play a part. A 1000w amp connected to a speaker in a crap box will not make it automatically loud.
As for the car vs living room, compare the size of the inside of your car and that of your room, look at the speaker size and how much air it needs to move compared to the room size, you're comparing apples to a potatoe.
@IgnoredComment i dont now how kicker sounds but i got zeppelin air thats the best ipod speaker in my option.
and i have heard that kicker ik501 have aggressive treble. zeppelin air have perfect sound no aggressive treble. and it much louder than the orginal zeppelin
at the end of the day as any true audiophiles will say home audio is all about the sound quality and not just who has the loudest sterio because its pointless haveing a banging loud sterio if you cat even hear the words clearly
oooh i went into a shop saw this and was like " awesome =3 " plugged in my ipod to test and and was blown away and everyone in the store jumped and stared at me
hi there! Fantastic sound? can be a challenge to AltecLansing boombox IMT800?have not see this in Asia? Who's the manufacturer? Any sole agents/distributor name . email, website, that I can write to? wat's the model name/number?thanks
@ande320 hey, thanks for supporting bose. i love bose. you get good sound quality from 2 little tiny speakers. i mean, gigantic speakers sound like shit, its not like, bigger speakers mean more air moves and has a fuller tone. little bose speakers are all the way!!!
...doggie,,its, not about 140 watts it,s about clean watts can you get 4 clean watts out of that how much is it...? say it cost $300 do you think at $300 a 140 watts will sound good,,,,they put the word Jive on it because there Jiving everyone under 21,,
I had this dock but after 7months is broke. they said they wernt selling them anymore because they wernt produced to take all the sound :/ such a shame it was absolutly amazing sound...
I love it how people boast about how much better their sound system is. Because of course, everyone knows the amount of watts your sound system is, is directly correlated to penis length
For real! Nobody knows what the hell they are talking about anymore. My friend thought he was tough because he had a 2000W Sony Xplod system in his car. I built a JBL system with custom speakers with such high sensitivity that they were louder and cleaner at 500W than his were at 2kW.. Lol
Glad someone agrees! That drives me nuts! The car audio industry is booming right now (no pun intended), but cheap companies that make poor quality equipment are making a killing, because they throw CRAZY high numbers about the power handling of their speakers, and everyone buys it right up! Too bad it's going to sound like garbage once they crank it up loud..
YEAH! thats why i did the research alot of friends gave me shit ohhh 2000 watts? come on i have a power acoustik 5500 watt amp, i was like lol lets see whos sounds best at full tilt, haha mine was louder and cleaner god, still cheap companys make a killing by new people seeing big bolded numbers 5500watts max not knowing its like 300rms or some shitty figure haha
I do live sound for churches and things, so I am very picky when it comes to my sound, I wasn't about to put anything crappy in my car with the amount of time I spend driving (At least an hour a day). I feel bad for people that waste their money on systems that practically make the car sound worse than it did stock..
yes well i dabble in car audio and even homeaudio, i at once thought of buying home stereo subwoofers because their ratings are sometimes around 100dbs for sensitivity and getting a matching low powered amp, and wondered what that would sound like, still waiting on trying that out lol
Wow that's great sensitivity! I have always wanted to try subwoofers intended for live sound in a car, I have never tried it, though. I have two 15" subs with 99dB sensitivity and 800W RMS. I would love to hear those in my car.
yeah i've heard this from a few people but never really tested it out mainly because the only PRO home audio amp i have is a mackie i believe its like 400rms but im gonna try it with my type r and see how it does haha
@thexxsweetness EXACTLY! Ask anyone who thinks their system bumps what kind of speakers they have and 7/10 times you will here, sony, low-end pioneer and JVC. All over-rated companys, some stuff is good but how about that ridiculous claim of the xplod being 1300 watts max power, Bullshit.
i have a full audio system in my room which i connect my i pod to.
and i have 2 90db speakers, 4 300 watt speakers and a 200 watt woofer.
and you obviously dont know anything about ICE, my car has a cheap set up, only cost me like £500 for the lot, and its just over 2500 watts, my freind has a pair of subs that are twice that power, there are loads of cars with in care audio over 2,500 watts, theres even cars with over 25,00 watts, look it up on youtube....tool
You know, not many people know this, only audiophiles that study audio, but watts are one of the least important. Yeah, you heard me, least. There is way more to a speaker then watts. I really don't care if my sub is 50 or 500 watts because it can be only 100 and do over 120db in a proper enclosure.
@masterwolf1212 your like half true... watts have a lot to do with power (well they are power haha) but as far as reaching db's... your going to need a lot of watts WITH a nice box
@masterwolf1212 wow he took his stupid pill this morning. i get what your trying to say you just said it wrong. power (watts) isn't as important as db. a 60db(@1w x 1m) sub powered with a 100w amp sux when compared with a 100db sub using a 25w amp. you have to double the power for every 3db gain.
@sniperboi99 Oh? How so? The enclosure is a very big part in the sound production. For one it resonates the freqeuncy, which helps the woofer/subwoofer produce louder sound. Also, it builds pressure therefore releasing a higher sound pressure level. Now the port design plays a big role aswell. There are spl ports, quite explanitory, which sound CRAP on everything else, especially music, than high spl single tone burps at the enclosure peak frequency, or daily, which CAN be loud, and sounds good
@sniperboi99 Now I'm sure you havent a CLUE why I was wrong. And havent you noticed many people agree with the comment, thus making it the highest rating. Anyways, I hope you do not think I'm using this as a "status measure" of my account, but I am correct. Now if your going to call ME wrong, then, in all "rightness" and politeness (Un-intentional rhyme :P) you should specify why I am wrong. If you are going to accuse someone to be wrong, then you need to have a reason why, or you'll look stupid
@dudeproductions100 So what, they run off the magical fairy dust from the land of the unicorns? :P But seriously what powers the dock then. I really hope you don't actually think an ipod dock plays without any power, thats 100 PERCENT IMPOSSIBLE AND IF ANY IDIOT WANTS TO DISAGREE THEN GO PUT YOUR HAND IN A FIRE, AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS :3 Without electricity, what would power the voice coils in the speaker drivers? What would the amp deliver? Maybe your saying the ipod powers it? I dont think so
@dudeproductions100 LOL Then what makes the sound? Your making absolutely no sense. You need a speaker driver to move the air around it, creating pressure, known as sound pressure which we hear. Without a speaker, well, its a box... Maybe your saying its an acoustical enclosure which the sound that comes from the ipod's built in speaker gets amplified by resonation within the enclosure, therefore amplifying the sound and frequencies? Never heard of it, and why not just get a powered dock?
@dudeproductions100 Ahahaha, I like that idea! Like the old phongraphs! I'd never think of that. I wonder how well it increases the lows. I have a feeling it doesn't, since atleast on phonographs the needle vibrated on the lows, on the ipod built in speaker it cant even produce such a frequency so the low frequencies arent even remotely produced. But sounds like an interesting idea, but probably sounds all midrangy screetchy. I have quite a feeling that they used plastic instead of brass though
In fact plastic would had been better, LOL. Rubber can be strong, but generally not stong enough for resonation, like brass or a metal. Look, I'd stick with speakers, this horn thing will sound bad. All you will hear is high, midrange ear piercing frequencies, and absolutely positively not a hint of lows..... You'll hear absolutely no bass.
@masterwolf1212 actaully horns are used in PA speakers, and PA subs, it increases efficiency, and smoothens out the frequency response, when used right, horn loaded enclosures are the best, which is teh reason why its used in proffesional application, however its not as popular for CONsumers becuase it is bulky, and due to size it is impractical.
bass is the biggest improvement in horns, try going to a gig next time, chances are the subs in the concerts probably include a folded horn.
@kboy3141 yeah but I don't think you have read the full argument though, but I'm not putting you down or anything. I know about horns, my dad has a recording studio and has a cerwin vega folded horn subwoofer and its loud as shet! xP They're great because they allow the frequencies to resonate properly, and as you said increases efficiency and smoothens the sound. But the person I was arguing with was saying that there is a dock that increases the sound of the internal speaker, which sound tingy
i have this and let me tell u it is up in my room...the bass can be felt on the floor downstairs from the subwoofer...also kicker is for pussy as cunts
I'm sorry, but I'm getting increasingly irritated by the fact that not only can't "you people" spell the simplest of English words, or use capital letters in the correct places, or use recognisable grammar, but you don't even seem to know the difference between "of" and "have". God help us! Read and learn you ignorant fool: "A demo would HAVE been nice." Get it? No, I thought not!
well we just see no reason to wright with perfect grammar all of the time i uasually do but thats only out of force of habbit but people only wright flawlessly when its an important report or resume seruiously theres no point in complaining about it cause arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics.... even if you win, your still retarded
By wright I assume you mean write; uasually- usually, thats-that's, habbit - habit, seruiously- seriously, theres - there's, cause - because, olympics - Olympics, your - you're. That's just the spelling! I could go on. You only help to prove my point. Keep the pathetic insults coming they're hilarious! Special thanks go to the child who called me a fucktard - I really did laugh out loud.
your missing the point... we dont use perfect spelling cause its not gonna make a difference either way...... now tell me why its so damn important to use flawless grammer and spelling in pointless comments? really i see no reason to argue about this it is a meaningless conversation
something i really want to know and NEED AND ANSWER to is this: i bought an ipod speaker and when i have it on loud (even if nothing is playing), it is silent. when i have it set to soft, static is present which sucks if i want to listen to a song silently. SO QUESTION NUMBER 1 IS : IS THERE ANY STATIC AND AT WHAT VOLUME/IS IT NOTICEABLE. the last question is this: REGARDLESS OF VOLUME, IS THE QUALITY OF SOUND GOOD FOR ALL/MOST STLYES OF MUSIC, IF NOT, PLEASE LIST. thanks to anyone who helped
well u have your ipod on max and your speak at lil over its the best quality if u have both on max it tends to sound bad unless you have high high quality speakers like bose or jbl or logitec
i just bought one for 100 its a beast trust me lol i played david guetta love is gone and the quality is amazin no distortion even when the bass kicks mega hard.
you said u bought it so i'll ask you :something i want to know and NEED AND ANSWER to is this: i bought an ipod speaker and when i have it on loud (even if nothing is playing), it is silent. when i have it set to soft, static is present which sucks if i want to listen to a song silently. SO QUESTION NUMBER 1 IS : IS THERE ANY STATIC AND AT WHAT VOLUME/IS IT NOTICEABLE. the last question is this: REGARDLESS OF VOLUME, IS THE QUALITY OF SOUND GOOD FOR ALL/MOST STYLES OF MUSIC, IF NOT, PLEASE LIST.
1. well there is no static if what im thinking your refering to is static.
2. yeah the sound quality is really good i also like ambient music and it plays excellent loud and quiet. kings of leon sounds good aswell but the jivebox does prefer bassy music like rock and hard dance.
when you are playing hardhouse at full volume and theres no distortion the balance between the treble is equal and the vocals sound perfectly clear and it is able to produce lots of volume i would call that good for an ipod dock worth 100

It's a shame no one looks at TS parameters and SPL anymore. Sensitivity means a hell of a lot more than power handleing.

not necessarily iphones are thicker and if a dock is not made for it interference could happen

Lmao at the comments on this.. O yea my truck stereo has 3500 watts rms and 6500 watts max..

I love it how people boast about how much better their sound system is. Because of course, everyone knows the amount of watts your sound system is, is directly correlated to penis length
Tobletone27 2 years ago 2
For real! Nobody knows what the hell they are talking about anymore. My friend thought he was tough because he had a 2000W Sony Xplod system in his car. I built a JBL system with custom speakers with such high sensitivity that they were louder and cleaner at 500W than his were at 2kW.. Lol
thexxsweetness 2 years ago
YES! finally someone who understands less power with a higher sensitivity can sounds louder AND cleaner!
scottyBoland 2 years ago
Glad someone agrees! That drives me nuts! The car audio industry is booming right now (no pun intended), but cheap companies that make poor quality equipment are making a killing, because they throw CRAZY high numbers about the power handling of their speakers, and everyone buys it right up! Too bad it's going to sound like garbage once they crank it up loud..
thexxsweetness 2 years ago 5
YEAH! thats why i did the research alot of friends gave me shit ohhh 2000 watts? come on i have a power acoustik 5500 watt amp, i was like lol lets see whos sounds best at full tilt, haha mine was louder and cleaner god, still cheap companys make a killing by new people seeing big bolded numbers 5500watts max not knowing its like 300rms or some shitty figure haha
scottyBoland 2 years ago
I do live sound for churches and things, so I am very picky when it comes to my sound, I wasn't about to put anything crappy in my car with the amount of time I spend driving (At least an hour a day). I feel bad for people that waste their money on systems that practically make the car sound worse than it did stock..
thexxsweetness 2 years ago
yes well i dabble in car audio and even homeaudio, i at once thought of buying home stereo subwoofers because their ratings are sometimes around 100dbs for sensitivity and getting a matching low powered amp, and wondered what that would sound like, still waiting on trying that out lol
scottyBoland 2 years ago
Wow that's great sensitivity! I have always wanted to try subwoofers intended for live sound in a car, I have never tried it, though. I have two 15" subs with 99dB sensitivity and 800W RMS. I would love to hear those in my car.
thexxsweetness 2 years ago
i know but i never could figure out how much of a difference a home audio rating is from a car audio rating you know? smaller voicecoils and such
scottyBoland 2 years ago
I hadn't even thought of that, I'm going to look into it!
thexxsweetness 2 years ago
yeah i've heard this from a few people but never really tested it out mainly because the only PRO home audio amp i have is a mackie i believe its like 400rms but im gonna try it with my type r and see how it does haha
scottyBoland 2 years ago
@thexxsweetness EXACTLY! Ask anyone who thinks their system bumps what kind of speakers they have and 7/10 times you will here, sony, low-end pioneer and JVC. All over-rated companys, some stuff is good but how about that ridiculous claim of the xplod being 1300 watts max power, Bullshit.

im saying 150watt is pathetic.
put it his way, that prbaly costs a few quid, i dont know say 150/200 quid?
my car soundsystem cost 300 quid right, and it over 2,500 watts.
go figure it out.
to pay that money for an iod dock is stupid, the batteries probaly dont lats long and you could make a louder one that cheaper
right?

i have a full audio system in my room which i connect my i pod to.
and i have 2 90db speakers, 4 300 watt speakers and a 200 watt woofer.
and you obviously dont know anything about ICE, my car has a cheap set up, only cost me like £500 for the lot, and its just over 2500 watts, my freind has a pair of subs that are twice that power, there are loads of cars with in care audio over 2,500 watts, theres even cars with over 25,00 watts, look it up on youtube....tool

WTF? 150W? my subwoofer has less then that.
CORE956221 2 years ago
You know, not many people know this, only audiophiles that study audio, but watts are one of the least important. Yeah, you heard me, least. There is way more to a speaker then watts. I really don't care if my sub is 50 or 500 watts because it can be only 100 and do over 120db in a proper enclosure.

sniperboi99 1 year ago
@sniperboi99 Oh? How so? The enclosure is a very big part in the sound production. For one it resonates the freqeuncy, which helps the woofer/subwoofer produce louder sound. Also, it builds pressure therefore releasing a higher sound pressure level. Now the port design plays a big role aswell. There are spl ports, quite explanitory, which sound CRAP on everything else, especially music, than high spl single tone burps at the enclosure peak frequency, or daily, which CAN be loud, and sounds good
masterwolf1212 1 year ago
@sniperboi99 Now I'm sure you havent a CLUE why I was wrong. And havent you noticed many people agree with the comment, thus making it the highest rating. Anyways, I hope you do not think I'm using this as a "status measure" of my account, but I am correct. Now if your going to call ME wrong, then, in all "rightness" and politeness (Un-intentional rhyme :P) you should specify why I am wrong. If you are going to accuse someone to be wrong, then you need to have a reason why, or you'll look stupid

dudeproductions100 1 year ago
@dudeproductions100 So what, they run off the magical fairy dust from the land of the unicorns? :P But seriously what powers the dock then. I really hope you don't actually think an ipod dock plays without any power, thats 100 PERCENT IMPOSSIBLE AND IF ANY IDIOT WANTS TO DISAGREE THEN GO PUT YOUR HAND IN A FIRE, AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS :3 Without electricity, what would power the voice coils in the speaker drivers? What would the amp deliver? Maybe your saying the ipod powers it? I dont think so
masterwolf1212 1 year ago
@masterwolf1212 never said it has a speaker in it. the shape of the dock increses sound.
dudeproductions100 1 year ago
@dudeproductions100 LOL Then what makes the sound? Your making absolutely no sense. You need a speaker driver to move the air around it, creating pressure, known as sound pressure which we hear. Without a speaker, well, its a box... Maybe your saying its an acoustical enclosure which the sound that comes from the ipod's built in speaker gets amplified by resonation within the enclosure, therefore amplifying the sound and frequencies? Never heard of it, and why not just get a powered dock?
masterwolf1212 1 year ago
@masterwolf1212 i guess you never heard of the "horn" iphone dock. it is in a shape of a horn and naturally increses the sound 2.5 times louder.
dudeproductions100 1 year ago
@dudeproductions100 Ahahaha, I like that idea! Like the old phongraphs! I'd never think of that. I wonder how well it increases the lows. I have a feeling it doesn't, since atleast on phonographs the needle vibrated on the lows, on the ipod built in speaker it cant even produce such a frequency so the low frequencies arent even remotely produced. But sounds like an interesting idea, but probably sounds all midrangy screetchy. I have quite a feeling that they used plastic instead of brass though
masterwolf1212 1 year ago
@masterwolf1212 it is rubber. not brass or plastic.
dudeproductions100 1 year ago
@dudeproductions100 Lol thats gonna do you nothing
In fact plastic would had been better, LOL. Rubber can be strong, but generally not stong enough for resonation, like brass or a metal. Look, I'd stick with speakers, this horn thing will sound bad. All you will hear is high, midrange ear piercing frequencies, and absolutely positively not a hint of lows..... You'll hear absolutely no bass.
masterwolf1212 1 year ago
@masterwolf1212 actaully horns are used in PA speakers, and PA subs, it increases efficiency, and smoothens out the frequency response, when used right, horn loaded enclosures are the best, which is teh reason why its used in proffesional application, however its not as popular for CONsumers becuase it is bulky, and due to size it is impractical.
bass is the biggest improvement in horns, try going to a gig next time, chances are the subs in the concerts probably include a folded horn.
kboy3141 1 year ago
@kboy3141 yeah but I don't think you have read the full argument though, but I'm not putting you down or anything. I know about horns, my dad has a recording studio and has a cerwin vega folded horn subwoofer and its loud as shet! xP They're great because they allow the frequencies to resonate properly, and as you said increases efficiency and smoothens the sound. But the person I was arguing with was saying that there is a dock that increases the sound of the internal speaker, which sound tingy

something i really want to know and NEED AND ANSWER to is this: i bought an ipod speaker and when i have it on loud (even if nothing is playing), it is silent. when i have it set to soft, static is present which sucks if i want to listen to a song silently. SO QUESTION NUMBER 1 IS : IS THERE ANY STATIC AND AT WHAT VOLUME/IS IT NOTICEABLE. the last question is this: REGARDLESS OF VOLUME, IS THE QUALITY OF SOUND GOOD FOR ALL/MOST STLYES OF MUSIC, IF NOT, PLEASE LIST. thanks to anyone who helped
