Altec Lansing inMotion iM600
The Altec Lansing inMotion iM600 is an iPod player/Charger compatible with all iPod models containing a 30-pin connector. Included also is an auxiliary input jack for connecting CD, DVD, and other MP3 players (cable not included). Unlike its peers (e.g. the iM11BLK and iM310), this system itself is rechargeable, as it includes a Li-ion battery that plays up to 5 hours—thereby saving the user loads of cash. Plus, the iM600 hosts more powerful speakers, each equipped with a 2” Neodymium driver for better highs and lows. Additional notable features of the Altec Lansing inMotion iM600 include an FM/clock radio, a wireless remote, and Altec’s proprietary Sound Stage technology, which makes the speakers sound further apart than they really are.
