Altec Lansing: inMotion iMmini Review

[grad]

Just received these speakers yesterday...

I was orginally contemplating buying either these speakers or the JBL On Tour for its portability, and use with either a shuffle or ipod mini.

THE GOOD
-They absolutely sound better than the JBL On Tour speakers.
-Super lightweight for backpacking. Packs easily. The speakers are protected with sturdy grills. Comes with a snap-on plastic cover to further protect the speakers.
-Included are Universal Electric Plugs for foreign countries!!!
-Can be easily modified to fit other docking iPods


THE BAD
-If you turn the volume all the way up, the speakers have MORE noticible distortion than the JBL On Tour at a similar volume. (Not really a problem, because the sound fills a small room at about halfway up the volume knob.)

AWESOME pickup, for only $36 (original MSRP $129). Well worth it!! Thanks all!

The link in the post below is still good at Buy.com for $27.99 with free shipping. I like my set a lot, too.
