Show off your music

I love my music, and when my friends come over all I want to do is show off my favourite music to them. And what better way to do that than to use Altec Lansing’s new portable speaker – the IM310! While it’s generally an iPod speaker (note the iPod dock), you can also connect your CD, DVD and mp3 player to it, so there are no worries about its limitations as a speaker. You can also plug it in via AC, or use AA batteries which provide a whole 48 hours of music playback which is sure to keep you and your friends more than satisfied. Sound quality with the IM310 is not too shabby either – the sound is powerful and there’s good, deep bass. The Altec Lansing IM310 is currently available at SGD159.
