Great size, very good sound quality, FM radio, SFX enhancement

A little "bass thin"

The alarm clock and FM features make for nice listening options in addition to being a very capable iPod sound dock.

Very good sound quality for the size ; solid FM tuner ; infrared remote control with excellent range ; rechargeable battery ; syncs with computer ; radio tunes from 76.0 to 108.0

Altec Lansing's iM600 speaker system offers a compact design, great sound, video output, auxiliary input, remote control, FM radio, and a rechargeable battery rated at seven hours of continuous playback.

Altec Lansing has been in the iPod speaker market longer than anyone, and it shows. The inclusion of a rechargeable battery and an FM radio makes the iM600 incredibly versatile.
