Bose Pushing iPod Docks for the Holidays

If you’ve ever heard the great quality of Bose speakers, you can understand the desire to capture that same sound when it comes to iPod accessories.  Looks like Bose is marketing their iPod gear pretty heavily for the Holidays.  I spotted several ads just this weekend.

The Bose SoundDock Portable Music System includes a dock with Bose’s waveguide technology speakers, in ear headphones, a remote control, and carrying case.  The speakers are made from neodymium, and volume controls are hidden on the side of the unit.  Ramping volume control gradually turns up sound when unit is powered up.

If you don’t want the entire package, you can also purchase each component separately.  The Bose portable system is available at Frontgate.

Headphones with Built-In iPod Holder

I just love iPod accessories, and it seems there is simply no end in sight to the number of new gadgets that are available for iPods and other MP3 players.

Check out these CTA Sportpod Digital Headphones with built-in iPod holders. One side of the iPod headphones is a holder for 1st generation iPods, and the other side works with the iPod Nano. What a great idea for getting those cords out of the way. I think this would be ideal for any fitness walker, or running enthusiast.

The iPod holder headphones feature padded ear pieces, an adjustable headband, and a cord in case you ever want to plug into your iPod or other MP3 player the old-fashioned way. Happy (cordless) listening!

Bass Booster for iPod

Boost the sound of your iPod or MP3 player with this PodXtreme external speaker. The pocket size speaker runs on a rechargeable lithium ion battery which charges from your USB port or an AC adapter. According to Gadget Universe, this tiny MP3 speaker packs a powerful punch in a compact package. And, since it runs on its own power instead of drawing power from your iPod or MP3 player, you’ll get more hours of listening out of every charge.

The PodXtreme external speaker for iPod and other MP3 players works by acting as a sub-woofer, piping the sound through a longer, extended pathway to create a higher quality sound for your listening pleasure. Of all the iPod accessories on the market today, sounds like this one just might make you the life of the party.

iPod Chair Man Stand and Speakers

Here’s a cool stand with built-in speakers for holding your iPod. It’s the Chair Man by Brighton Net. The Chair Man’s arms hold your iPod in place and his feet are your speakers, and the iPod stand is compatible with all iPod and iPod Shuffle models as well as some other MP3 players.

The Chair Man iPod speakers and stand combo operates on AA batteries or the included AC adapter. This would be a fun gadget to add to your desk or your dashboard. You can even bend the arms and legs into any shape you want. The Chair Man iPod holder comes in three colors: blue, pink, and black. I found this iPod gadget at Bridgewell for $24.99.
