iPod Dock Bracket FINALE, Altec Lansing IMV712 vs. Griffin Amplifi

"One cannot live while the other survives."
- J.K. Rowling

It's been what feels like three years in the making, but the final fight in our iPod Dock Battlemodo begins now. The $150 Griffin Amplifi is our budget contender, going face to face against the posh $350 Altec Lansing IMV712. And with that long of a model number, you know it's gotta be good.

But only one will leave this ring coffee table alive.

Sneak Peek at Griffin's Wireless Evolve iPod Speakers

We went rummaging through Griffin's New York HQ yesterday and got some one-on-one time with the sexy new Evolve wireless speaker dock. Here's how it works. You dock your iPod on the Evolve base station and then you can carry the cube-shaped speakers anywhere you want. The speakers last for 10 hours per charge and Griffin says you should get about a 150-foot range with them. We didn't go the full 150 feet, but here's what we found out. More »

Griffin Amplifi, Journi iPod Docks Shipping

Despite announcing these pretty neat looking iPod docks back in January, Griffin's only getting around to shipping them now. If you recall, the Amplifi is a standard-looking iPod dock with a PowerMate stuck on the front for volume control. Like a wheel in the sky, perhaps. More »

Griffin Slaps PowerMate on iPod Dock, Pats Selves On Backs

It took Griffin five years to find something good to solder their PowerMate volume knob to, but they've finally settled for an iPod dock. The Amplifi is a 2.1 channel iPod dock/speaker, nothing notable, but this has a PowerMate-knob, a wireless remote, and an all-wood construction. It's got six iPod adapters, some stereo jacks, and a 5-inch woofer. More »

Griffin Cradles Your iPod with AmpliFi and Voyager Speakers

Looks-wise, Griffin's new iPod speakers are impressive. On one hand you have the Amplifi, which reminds us of the SpeckTone dock if Darth Vader were to design one. The $150 AmpliFi has two 2.75-inch speakers along with a 5-inch subwoofer and an auxiliary input for hooking up other players. For those who like taking their iPod on the road, there's the $130 Voyager, Griffin's first rugged iPod speaker dock which is enclosed in a removable suit of rubber. It's got built-in speakers as well and like the AmpliFi runs off a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. We're siding with the AmpliFi cause we're superficial like that, but you should be able to pick up both speakers by early next year. Click through for a look at the Voyager. More »
