Day 11: A Better iPod Dock


I have been constantly disappointed with iPod docks.  I have purchased some of the best out there and they just aren't great.  They all have their various weaknesses, but as a rule NONE of them sound good.  Not Polk, not Bose, not anyone...  Now, I'm pretty picky about audio quality, but for some reason, $150 for a good 2.1 set of computer speaker buys a lot better sound than $300 on the best ipod docks out there.

For a while now, I have been on the verge of building a dock myself (from the guts of a Klipsch Promedia 2.1 speaker set), so this these (days 11 and 12) sketches may pave the way for my finally doing that.

As I just might build one, I'll likely follow in the next couple days with a set of build drawings...
