REVIEW: Macally's IP-N111 Portable Stereo Speakers for iPod nano

Posted by Lab RatI've written so many lengthy iPod speaker reviews of late that I am very excited to be reviewing the new IP-N111 Portable Stereo Speakers for iPodÂ® nano from Macally. Why? Well, aside from its On/Off switch, the IP-N111 has no...

Sounds great given its size, looks cool, solidly built, batteries last over 10 hours

No external audio input, sound distorts a bit at higher volumes

All in all, I think the IP-N111's surprisingly good sound quality and small size combine to make it a good choice for nano owners who are looking for a lightweight and compact portable speaker system. The audio quality is very good considering how...

Review: MacAlly IP-N111 Speakers

As most iPod owners already know, you just can't stop with the iPod itself. With the plethora of iPod accessories available taking your music listening to new horizons, it's just too hard to say no. Sure you lack willpower, but maybe you can redeem...

Small size, cheap price, sweet design, decent sound

Consumer review (newegg.com)

macally Portable Stereo Speakers for iPod nano 1st Gen (Black) Model IP-N111B - Retail

If you can get it to work the metal grill over the speaker creates a weird interference depending on the angle you hold it.

if you can get it to dock with the iPod it will play music.

Sloppy build quality. The 3.5mm docking connector was not straight on mine. It scratched up my iPod Nano, bits of plastic fell out. Lucky for me the iPod still works!
