If, like me, you are looking for a new mini
stereo system for your iPod then you might want to check out the Audioengine. The
iPod Garage recently gave a good review to the
Audioengine A5. The relatively compact system has a USB port and audio-in
port on top of left speaker for your own iPod dock. Unlike many iPod systems, the A5 is a pair of speakers
that are connected with speaker wires. The white and black speakers aren't portable but having two speakers means that
you can separate them and provide higher quality sound (unlike my current system). It requires an iPod Universal Dock
in order to work (which kept the iPod Garage from giving it a five-star rating). The A5 also works with
televisions, DVD players and sells for a quite reasonable $349 per pair.
