New iPod Speaker System Has An Outie
by Josh Goldman on January 2, 2007



I can’t speak to sound quality, ’cause I haven’t heard it, but the company says it “emulates the multi-amped 2.1 systems which are now used to make professional recordings” and CNET got a little demo of it and says it “delivered a weighty, full-bodied sound that belied George’s small size.” It is a five-speaker setup including a 4-inch downfiring subwoofer and it’s bi-amped, which is pretty upscale for an iPod dock.

One final thing to mention, other than you can choose from different wood shells and matching grill covers, is that Chestnut Hill Sound built in a USB port on the back panel allowing for software updates and upgrades and hardware modules, such as an HD radio receiver can be added down the road as well.

  • Fantastic. As an owner of the Bose SoundDock, and a past owner of an ipod (rendering the SoundDock useless) I can attest to the obvious benefit of having a display on the remote. Additionally, the ability to navigate from the remote is key. $549 is a bit pricey for my taste but I’m not sure that’s I wouldn’t have bought it a year ago. Does it function as an alarm clock? Maybe that’s worth $40-50 and I’m sick of using my mobile.

  • Yes, it does alarm clock duties as well. And it has an Aux input so you can connect any other player to it as well. From a feature standpoint it puts the Bose to shame.

  • Very nice - not something I am going to spend half a grand on. But still fun…
