Audioengine makes superb inexpensive
powered loudspeakers.
for $200 you can buy the iDock killer,
which is better than any of the special
purpose iPod docks by a substantial margin.
for $350, you can get the big brother.
I use the A2 ($200 model) in the bedroom,
which has audiophile quality (relative
to it's price, of course), and I've
heard similar;y good things about the A5 ($350).
if you buy, be careful with the volume control,
these things play super loud.
enjoy,
