[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1201826, member: 38864"] Alrighty. Well with your budget, I would probably stick to the Klipsch iGroove. It'll come in just under $150 if you shop around, and it supports the iPhone 3Gs and the iPhone 4. It'll charge your iPhones also, so that's an added benefit. There are other speaker docks that you may prefer, so really you just have to go to some place like Best Buy and try some out. If you have cases on your iPhones, then one thing you have to be careful about is ensuring that your iPhones will make a complete connection. I do know that some made by iHome do NOT work with the cases we use. Also bear in mind that with the price range you are looking at, most of these speaker docks will sound best if you are sitting within 6-8 feet. Much further away, and they just don't have large-enough speakers and amp power to sound as good. Of course, I speak as someone who can be a bit fussier than others, so ultimately it's what you like that counts. If you want a wireless option, there really won't be any real options with the new AirPlay feature until this spring, and probably a bit later than that for a good variety of options. There are bluetooth and wi-fi based solutions now, though the bluetooth types tend to be small, designed with portability in mind more than the sound quality. [/QUOTE]
