Reviews of the Altec Lansing M602 iPod Home Audio System (white)

CNET Review
The Good: The Altec Lansing M602 is an attractively designed stereo speaker system with a built-in dock that recharges your iPod as well as a composite video output for displaying iPod videos on TVs. Its line-in jack and included patch cable lets you attach any audio device, not just iPods, and it offers decent sound, with richer bass than you'd expect from a speaker system that's this compact.
The Bad: The sound can be overly bright. The wireless remote offers limited functionality, and setting the bass/treble levels is trickier than it should be.
The Bottom Line: The Altec Lansing M602 may not deliver high-end sound, but as far as iPod speaker systems go, it's a pretty solid choice for the money.
