Griffin reveals first iPod speaker systems

Griffin Technology has provided iLounge with exclusive details and pictures of its first iPod speaker systems. As revealed in our 2007 iPod Buyers’ Guide, the two new systems include a portable-sized system called the Voyager, and a larger, 2.1-channel tabletop system called the AmpliFi. Both are planned for release in the first quarter of 2007.

The Voyager ($130) boasts a protective tactile rubber enclosure that also serves as a stand. The portable speaker system also offers a built-in, rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery, wireless remote control, an adjustable iPod dock, auxiliary input, and Dock Connector port.

The AmpliFi ($150) features an acoustically tuned wooden enclosure, two 2.75” speakers for the highs and mids, and a dedicated 5” woofer and port for bass. The system also sports a universal iPod-charging dock, stereo input jack for connecting other devices, and a wireless remote.

The AmpliFi looks a lot like the Speck Tone Retro only minus the retro case and the addition of a wireless remote.

Similarities
-similar overall size
-volume knob in same location with glowing ring.
-ipod dock does not use Apple inserts but is sloped and accommodates all sizes.
-same speaker specks.

I’ll bet a bajillion dollars those knobs are Griffin Powermates. Which reminds me, I have to dig mine out of a drawer. I miss that giant silver knob.
