Amazon.com Product Description--Posted October 14, 2008 With its well-regarded inMotion system, Altec Lansing has raised the bar again with the iM600. Featuring a myriad of new technologies, the iM600 offers big, crystal-clear sound, and it folds up compactly for easy portability.
The Altec Lansing inMotion iM600:
offers incredible musicality and clarity with deep bass;
folds up compactly to offer great portability;
provides a dock for your iPod, charging it while playing music; and
features a built-in FM tuner.
With Expanded Sound Stage technology, the speakers sound further apart than they really are for a bigger soundstage. View larger. View Remote.
Superior Sound in a Small Package Employing dual two-inch neodymium drivers that are optimized for high-frequency sound, the iM600 offers unmatched musicality and clarity. Despite its compact size, the bass is punchy and has good extension, and with Altec Lansing's Expanded Sound Stage (ESS) technology, the speakers will sound further apart than they actually are, for a greater stereophonic image.
Elegant Design Matches the iPod The iM600 sports a distinctive thin and elegant glossy-black look. A spring-loaded button deploys the speaker's stand and reveals the iPod dock, power button, and volume controls.
Your iPod perches front and center, resting at an angle to display the current track information and album art while recharging. If your iPod model has the alarm clock and sleep timer features, they will work seamlessly with the iM600.
Various docking adapters are included, making the iM600 compatible with most iPods. Also, an auxiliary input lets you connect any CD, DVD, or MP3 player using a stereo mini-plug.
Built-in FM Tuner If you get bored with the songs on your iPod, the iM600 has a built-in FM tuner, letting you listen to your favorite music and talk radio. Near the top of the unit is an LCD that displays the current FM frequency; buttons on top provide tuning controls. The tuner also features a memory for four presets and a telescoping antenna for better reception.
Change the Music from Across the Room A small remote control is included, letting you change the musical selection from across the room. A storage slot built into the system itself makes it easy to store the remote, preventing you from losing it behind couch cushions and other inconvenient places.
Take Your Music To-Go With a compact size that folds closed to a mere 11 x 1.7 x 6 inches (W x D x H), and weighing only 2.1 pounds, the iM600 is easy to take with you to the beach, on vacation, or wherever you else you're going. The built-in rechargeable Li-Ion battery lets you listen to more than 7 hours of continuous play. An AC adapter is included for connected listening and recharging the battery.
The Altec Lansing iM600 is backed by a one-year warranty.
What's in the Box iM600 speaker system, wireless remote, iPod docking adapters, power supply, user's guide and quick connect instructions.
The iM600 will provide enough big sound to keep your party rocking.
Excellent product and great design!January 7, 2009 I'm very satisfied with this purchase, and I would definitely recommend it to everyone. A great stereo system at a great price.
Excellent system for the priceJanuary 7, 2009 I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend...he loves it! The sound quality is excellent for this price point. I wouldn't expect it to fill a huge space, but it does a nice job in an average size living room. Another nice feature to this sound dock is the tuner...a great little bonus. He's actually thinking of buying a second one for his office.
FantasticJanuary 7, 2009 Sounds great, looks great and is very compact and portable. I liked it so much I bought 3 more as gifts and the recipients all loved them too.
Does what it says for cheap, and with good qualityJanuary 6, 2009 Cheaper and just as effective as the Bose SoundDock, and it comes with a Li-ion battery - who could ask for more?!
Another dead iM600January 6, 2009 I also have an iM600 that died for no reason. Altec Lansing "customer support" told me to buy a new unit. I wonder, is the second generation any better?
