The iPod is a very small and portable music player made by Apple, and it is actually the best selling digital music player in history. In was invented in 2001 and since then it had sold millions of copies all over the world. There are 4 different models of iPods today, each one with its own characteristics.



The first version is the iPod Classic, then there is the iPod Nano that has video capabilities, the iPod Shuffle that is the smallest one and doesn’t have any display screen and also the iPod Touch that has a touchscreen technology. The iPod was first made to play music, but the iPods today are capable of storing other file types too, such as: photos, videos, games, e-mails, calendars and others.

So you just take the iPod anywhere with you (because of its very small size) and you can enjoy your favorite music wherever you go, using the included headphones. But sometimes you may want to share the music from your iPod with friends, and in this case you must use an iPod dock (or iPod speakers). These are also small and portable devices, that have an included set of speakers and also a docking place where you can put your iPod or iPhone and enjoy the music from it.

There are many companies that are producing iPod speakers, and today we are going to discuss about the S 125i iPod dock made by Logitech. This is quite a nice device, that is small and portable and has the design of an old stereo cassette player. You can use it to enjoy the music from your iPod or iPhone, but you can also connect a CD, DVD or MP3 player to it and even a computer or laptop (thanks to the 3.5 stereo jack). The device has dimensions of 3.35 inches (8.5 cm) H x 7.77 inches (19.5 cm) W x 3.54 inches (9 cm).

So it is not so big and you will be able to take anywhere you go. It works with batteries that can last for up to 10 hours. If you prefer the music with a more powerful bass than normal, then this speaker is good for you because it features a bass boost function that will increase the level of the bass. The price for the Logitech S 125i iPod dock is around 70 dollars.

Another good model of iPod docking station is the Klipsch iGroove SXT that costs 150 dollars. Klipsch is known for making very good speakers that are offering a high quality sound, and it is the same with this one. It offers both an elegant design and a great sound.
