These are just speakers w/amp that you can plug any ipod into. No fancy docking features or anything and I've personally never heard them- but they have been recommended to me and they sure appear impressive. For the price of some of the docks, I think these come into play and probably have better sound. Anyone heard these or otherwise have an opinion based on research or hear say? http://www.genelecusa.com/products/

From all I have read Genelac makes impressive subs, no idea on speaker/monitor sound quality.

Could you just hook some audiobytes straight into an ipod or would there be a lack of power to drive them?

Axiom doesn't sell the M0s (the AB speakers) separate from the amp; this is a good thing, since the amp has the crossover for the audiobytes in it.

Genelec studio monitors are used in many professional setups.

If price isn't an issue, how about a B&W Zeppelin ? I've heard the big one, and it was pretty amazing, though definitely not portable. And not cheap. I haven't seen nor heard the "mini", but it might be more the size you're looking for.

Hi David, I got one of these Tekkeon units for my iPod Touch 2G last year and have been very pleased with it. Plugs into any receiver, so it's portable. Charges the iPod. Several connections. Plugged into receiver, receiver to TV and the menus come up on the TV screen. Comes with remote. Also plays video on TV connected with component cables. Very cool. For some other ideas, just plug "ipod dock" into the search box on Newegg.
