The SRS-DF30 is otherwise your run-of-the-mill 2.1 speaker system, with a headphone out, power on/off and volume control. But hey, if your internet is as unreliable as mine was back when I lived in New York, maybe an integrated radio system isn't such a bad idea. It'll be available in March for $200.

The result: the iPod looks like something climbing out of a monster truck.

The LBT-ZX66i delivers 560 watts of sound through two separate three-way bass reflex speakers, each of which have a 7-inch dual hybrid subwoofer and a 1-inch horn tweeter. Besides being iPod-ready, it also comes with a five-disk CD changer and Game Sync Mixing for hooking up to video game systems. It'll be out in March for $450.

The LBT-ZX99i, pictured at top,i one-ups the 66i with four two-way bass reflex speakers containing 9-inch subwoofers and two 2-inch tweeters. It can be cranked up to 720 watts and will be available in March for $650.
