Im looking for a decent ipod home stereo solution it would be cool to also have a way to play cd's still and ive been looking at (boombox looking) stereo equip that would provide decent sound ive heard good reviews of non-cd playing solutions like "Sonic Impact T24 Digital Audio System" and the "Bose Sounddock" - but am trying to keeps costs under control and $300 i think is a bit steep for not even room filling sound - i like a variety of music and enjoy full base - was curious what the word on the street is things change all the time - perhaps there are other options - or perhaps people can offer thier opinions on this.

The "BOSE Companion 3 Series II multimedia speaker system' looks pretty cool (nice subwoofer size and price) but i worry about getting substandard audio from the 1/8" stereo jack - if they had an ipod interface and a remote id be sold. still an interesting option though.

-- get bigger speakers, better bass - but still $$$
-- are there any other options for ggod quality audio - (id prefer to use the ipod connecter as opposed to the 1/8" stereo jack)

OK - after alot of comparison the choice came down to the Altec Lansing m602 and the apple hifi -- the bose system sucked with heavy base (slipknot) - where the apple and lansing were pretty good -- the apple is the best but for $350 while the lansing was 150 -- the choice is obvious - i got the lansing for the bedroom, if i was going for the living/great room nothing beats the apple on eit would be worth the extra $

I play CD's on my desktop Mac using Bose Companion Multi-Media speakers. My iPod can plug right in too. For an extra affordable speaker, the older Bose Media Mate computer speakers are also very good.
