After buying the Altec Lansing for sound incomparable but they do not last
Both of the ones I purchased broke
I didn’t use it for over a month plugged it in would not work. I even hard wired it no go
So yes the sound when it plays is great but for some reason it does not last. I’m zero for two
I do love buying my things from Amazon. They have the best return policy on the Internet
Sadly I will no be purchasing any products from Altec Lansing any time soon

I agree with your assertion that the Altec T612 is amazing. In fact, I think Altec’s products deliver fantastic sound across the board. They have great depth of sound and are not tinny.

I’ve spent hours in stores sound testing ipod/iphone speaker docks and, to my ear, Altec comes out way on top in its price range, and often sounds better than systems that are more expensive.

The iM600 is a great player too, and the rechargeable battery makes it super portable for taking out to the patio or on a picnic, etc.

I am not officially involved in Altec L. in any way, btw, I just really love their stuff!

I think a more appropriate title would be ‘the best and most affordable’ dock, because there are options that are close to $1000 which no doubt sound way better than this set.

I went middle of the road and have a Bose dock that I spent around $450 on and it sounds great, I haven’t heard the Altec but for a fraction of the price you have to wonder how it would compare, or is that Apples to Oranges?

I don’t doubt it’s a good set of speakers but the best is a bold claim unless you specify a price range.
