Wireless Sound System for IPOD
While on our recent cross-country road trip, we joined a couple at the next site for drinks, dinner, and a cookout. As we were setting up, one of them came out of their 5’er carrying two black cubes. He placed them on large rocks about 20 feet apart, pulled out what looked like a real slim cell phone, pushed a button or two and within seconds we had music. When asked, he told me it was a wireless sound system for an IPOD that he purchased at Best Buy. He took Doris and I into his trailer and showed us the combined docking station and speaker charging system. We were totally WOW’ed! Whereas it was Mother’s Day, I told Doris that she was looking at her Mother’s Day gift.
Through the remainder of our trip, I searched for this system at Wally World, Circuit City, and several other electronic outlets. Not one store had them or heard of such a system. After getting home, I finally made a stop at Best Buy and found they had the system in stock. It is a Griffin Evolve Wireless Sound System for IPOD. I sucked up the $300 it cost and took home. Bottom line, Doris loves it! She sez buying it was one of the best ideas I have had.
The system has a wireless range of 150 feet and the remote does not have to be in sight of the docking station to work. In other words it transmits it signal thru walls. We use it throughout the house and at poolside and it works great!
And, for those who are wondering, other than being a customer, I am not associated with Griffin or any vendor of their products.
