Velvet Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 Hey all.So more and more students are showing up with Ipods instead of cds when they want to learn a tune, which is bad for me 'cuz for some reason my ears just don't work with the earphones - it's so frustrating I now refuse to learn stuff offa Ipods.But of course in my quest to be an amicable guitar teacher, I figured having some speakers on hand to plug the things into would make everyone happy. Soooo....I'm looking for a pair of Ipod speakers that sound good enough that I can adequately learn the music coming out of them (I sure don't need the extra bass or anything like that), but I want something pretty cheap (would it be comical if I needed something Ipod related that was both cheap and reliable?).Any suggestions?

bradm Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 I think Basher has these, and when I heard them (in a hotel room in Vegas), I was very impressed. While they list for US$100, ISTR Basher getting them a lot cheaper than that (CDN$60, maybe?).Aloha,Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tungsten Gruvsten Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 behringer makes a great pair of powered speakers - MS-16's, small but good sound, comes with the cable you need to plug into your ipod.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 Todd - your computer speakers (if you have any) should do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YearsAlongTheSea Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 It's not cheap but Bose makes headphones and a iPod speaker dock system that second only to the 'wall of sound'Altec Lansing make a nice 'lil dock too.There are definately a ton of other 'lil companies making iPod accessories out there though. Alas, computer speakers are the quick fix.Teach your children well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
