Best iPhone 5 Docking Station?
Permalink  
 

Hello,

 

Anyone got an iPhone 5? Anyone know of a really good sound system that will charge it as well?

 

I've got a Bose sound system downstairs and it is REALLY IMPRESSIVE! The sound quality is immense and it runs off its own batteries which means it is portable. But will run off the AC supply once connected. It lasts for hours on batteries and still sounds terrific. However it is not my docking station so I was wondering what I could buy. Plus those Bose's are not cheap.

 

Anyone wana throw me some links to have a look at? Get it in White Preferably.

 

Thanks

I found this lovely docking station. Only thing is it's not iPhone 5 compatible. Also a tad pricey. Anyone had any experience with them?

some of the top of the range docks have been reduced to make way for the "lightning Connection" docks, so maybe cheeper to buy a second hand touch and an amazing dock. worth looking at that as an option

Ah is it. Has it got a subwoofer? Like the bigger models. Whats the sound quality like. Doesnt need to be mint but for £250 it needs to be decent!

Like said got a bose downstairs and its phenominal. So want the same really.

It's got to be minimalistic. No cables. Those bose systems manage to get excellent sound quality without the looking ugly or lots of cables.

Looks like i should just go down the Bose route unless someone else has a good idea.

Nah. Its just for the bedroom. Parents don't want me to have a phat unit in my room. But I know what you mean. If it were up to me it would be full 7.1 dolby surroundsound lol.
