Altec Lansing introduced the newest member of its inMotion family last month, neatly entitled the inMotion® Classic – it’s designed for iPhone as well as iPod, and includes an FM radio tuner. Its also packing a rechargeable battery, and is apparently “engineered for portability and versatility, so music enthusiasts can groove anywhere without missing a beat”.There’s also a neat multi-function handle serves three important roles: swing up for grab-and-go transport, swing back as a kickstand, and swing under to stow away and turn off the battery.
“Works with iPhone” certification means interference-free listening, eliminating the need to switch the iPhone to airplane mode. iPhone and iPod devices are automatically charged when the inMotion Classic is plugged into a power outlet.
The inMotion Classic’s advanced remote control features full menu navigation for iPhone and iPod, allowing users to browse artists, songs and playlists directly from the remote. The high-contrast LCD always lets you know the song details from afar.
The inMotion Classic utilizes proprietary Audio Alignment™ craftsmanship to deliver a balanced, authentic sound. Expanded Sound Stage technology enhances the stereo listening experience by widening the sound field at the touch of a button. Custom-built, dual 3-inch neodymium drivers throw out clear, powerful sound with the quality that Altec Lansing fans have come to expect.
The Altec Lansing inMotion Classic (iMT620) will be available from October at Amazon.com, John Lewis and www.alteclansing.com. RRP is £129.99
