Your Source Of iPod Docks Information
So my 3rd gen iPod touch and my nano perfectly works with the sounddock 10 when used with the dock connector but it doesn’t work with the touch over Bluetooth. Every other telephones in the house can stream music to it with Bluetooth but not my iPod! Can this problem be fixed? Maybe I have to buy a new bluetooth adapter(I don’t want to)?
Heres the problem. 3 years ago I bought a new BOSE ipod sounddock for 0. A part broke and now I have to spend 0 to fix it. The bose store will ship it for free and repair it. Heres a picture of the speaker. http://www.i-weaver.com/upfile/pic1231357690.01-A1NDBS7YGOPBD6
I am debating on fixing the old speaker for 0 or purchasing this new speaker off a store on ebay.

It is Logitech and has bass, treble, and 3d stereo. Can someone compare these speakers or give me some tips? thanks
I have a Kodak camera which takes photos in HD. If you buy a dock for £60 it will display them on a HD TV. Was just wondering if I bought a PS3 if it would display them in the same way? Does anyone know?
I’m trying to find parts to build my own custom computer, a home built version of Sony’s Vaio Z series Power Media Dock. It will be far from an exact duplicate; that wouldn’t be powerful enough for my needs. It would really help if the websites included some sort of chat room so that I could ask about parts that I’m having a hard time finding, but it’s not a requirement. I only ask because I haven’t found any truly *helpful* websites.
I’m looking for portable ipod speakers for the beach and the basketball court. Something loud with a lot of bass. I want the battery power option so I can take it anywhere. I see the Bose Sounddock is pretty popular. The IK500 by kicker sounds great but needs AC power from a wall. Any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
I am running xp on my sony vaio I recently had to recover the c drive partition but all worked fine for a while. some things like keyboard and mouse and wireless adapter work but sony camera dock and lexmark printer will not. I get code 10 errors.
COnnecting ipod to a campion 5 Bose speaker system (designed for attachment to PC) volume is very poor. WHen connecting to a sounddock volume is great. Do I need an amp to connet ipod to and then amp to speakers ??
If not, I need some way to convert the video on the tape to digital format without using a dock (since I don’t have one). Any ideas?
Its not the Series II
it was the one that came out before that… it doesnt say iPod Touch because the speakers came out a little before they made ipod touch.
does anyone have these speakers and can still listen to theyre iPod Touch??
heres a picture

i dont have the iPod touch yet
thats why im asking.
I would be surprised to find that it doesn’t have a direct docking port to put my SD in directly…does it just not have one????
Bose Commitment Statement?So my latest test is a Bose Sounddock II. I’m returning today because it’s musicality is not of the best and it has the highs way overboosted with missing "highest notes".
Unhappy with it, so I’m returning it.
As I’m packing it up for the journey back to the store, I noticed a sheet: "Our Commitment".
It sounds really good… But I really don’t think that they abide by all their words.
What do you think?
Here’s a copy of the (almost) identical commitment statement from their site:

My 701cc Yamaha Waverunner ran OK (using 40:1 premix) ran well without overheating at wide-open throttle for extended periods, but would bog down sometimes if you gave it sudden full throttle from a standing position. It needed new motor mounts and in getting at them I had to temporarily remove the exhaust chamber. I also replaced the very old and gunky spark plugs (NGK BR8HS) with new.
Took it out this weekend. Exhaust and cooling systems seem OK, water streams way up from stern when running and from port-side when running or with garden hose atttached. Ran for an hour under moderate throttle (kids on board) no problem, no more bog-down when opening throttle from a stand-still, but then after I hot-dogged wide-open-throttle for about 10-15 minutes RPMs started to drop, stalled on power-down, and thermal switch starting cutting the ignition so I had to wait for cool-down and barely made it back to dock. I plan on taking it to open water next weekend where I can do a plug chop to read the new plugs, but not sure where to go from there, maybe to clean the carb jets. Thermal switch is OK, motor was noticeably hotter than normal.
Does anyone have suggestions on why just changing to new spark plugs might cause these two changes – eliminating the bog-down but introducing overheating?

I just bought an Onkyo ht-s5300 reciever. I have a Roku box and Ipod dock connected to it. But when I try to hook my dvd player up to the Onkyo reciever , I only get the sound and not the picture. I have tried to hook the dvd player up to the alloted blue ray/dvd slots in the back, and the aux port in the front, and they both play the sound, but no picture. Dp I have the right cables? Do I need to hook the dvd player right up to my tv? I hope not cause I thought that was kinda the point of having a reciever. Any help would be mose appreciated. Jah Bless
Last week the area I live in was hit with massive amounts of lighting three days in a row. After one of these storms I went to play my ipod on the speaker system I have and found it would not work. It would turn it on and then immediately it would come up saying error. Does anyone know if there is some way to try to reset it? Any other suggestions on ways to try to fix it would be great. It is the Sony personal audio docking system RDP-XF100iP. Thanks!
All I want is one simple answer and that is which one has better sound quality. I know there is a difference in price but i was just wondering about the sound quality. And I prefer a balanced sound over a bass heavy sound.
Need to know if it has an inbuilt SMPS supply or will it get fried if I plug it into 220 V. the back of the unit mentions 110V.
I have a big speaker from a Sony cd player,i kept the speaker to try and add more bass to songs coming from my ipod dock unfortunately the wires from the back of the speaker dont have a head for connecting the speaker to the docking station so i was wondering if you could give me any low budget ideas to connect them? don’t be a prick please i really need to know
