Infrared remote for controlling iPod functions and source.

Sound First
The iN STUDIO 5.0 speakers are active, bi-amped 25W enclosures with a one-inch natural silk tweeter and five-inch shielded paper cone. Both drivers are magnetically shielded for interference-free placement near televisions or monitors. The speakers feature a tuned port for vibrant bass response, ensuring tight, accurate, room-filling lows. The matching grilles look great with the design while offering protection.

Universal iPod Dock
The iN STUDIO 5.0 features a Universal iPod Dock that is ready for any dockable iPod model. Charge your iPod while it's docking, and synchronize it with the supplied USB connection. For those of you with video-enabled iPods, use the S-Video output to view your videos and photos on your television.

I/O Versatility
In addition to the iPod features, the iN STUDIO 5.0 boasts two additional source inputs. The first is a stereo RCA connection, ideal for CD/DVD players, TV/Radio Tuners, video game systems and more. The second 3.5mm mini jack input is ready for MP3 players and more. Have an Apple Airport Express? Use the inputs to stream music wirelessly from your computer. You can use the auxiliary power socket to power it. For those with older iPods, there is a S-Video connection to display video from Gen 5 and 5.5 iPods. For those who are buying the new iPods, use the speaker dock for the sound, but not the video.

Effortless Operation
Set up is simple, power plug into the wall, plug in each speaker and you're ready to go--no speaker wires. The Auto On/Off feature means you simply insert your iPod and the iN STUDIO 5.0 will power up automatically. Use the included infrared remote for control over your iPod's functions and audio source.

One Pair Black Amplified Speakers, Infrared Remote, RCA Cable, S-Video Cable, USB Cable, AC Power Cable, Universal Dock Adaptors, Owner's Manual, Foam Pad Feet.

Product Description

Are you ready to replace your big component stereo? This is not your ordinary iPod speaker dock with thin sound. Instead, the iN STUDIO 5.0's built in 50 watt dynamic amp and sleek high quality speakers can easily fill most rooms with sound. The speakers deliver tight, accurate bass and clarity that satisfies the most discerning listener. These speakers not only sound great but they are smart too. Dock your iPod, sync to your computer via the supplied USB connection, and charge and play all your Audio and Video files. There is an S-Video output which allows you to connect the speakers to your TV for a high quality video signal while listening to a wide sound stage that feels like surround sound. Use the infrared remote to select music from the iPod or two additional source inputs: Auxiliary Input 1 is a stereo set of RCA connections, and Auxiliary Input 2 is a 1/8" mini-jack. This allows you to connect two sources (like your CD/DVD Player, TV/Radio Tuner, Game unit, MP3 player etc). You can even use one of the inputs to stream music wirelessly from your computer by using an Apple® Airport Express. There is even a built-in a power socket to plug units like the Express in the back of the speaker. A 104 inch cable with ¼ ends connects the two speakers. While the speakers look great and don't take up much space, the most impressive thing is the quality of sound. The iN STUDIO 5.0 will help you discover a totally different musical experience from your favorite artists.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sierra Sound IN STUDIO - AWESOME sound, August 27, 2007
This review is from: Sierra Sound IN Studio 5.0 Ins5B iPod Speaker Dock (Black) (Electronics)
I ordered the IN Studio 5.0 Ins5B iPod Speaker Dock (Black) via their website after reading a review in a MAC Magazine. I usually do not buy without hearing audio equipment first, since speakers are a personal experience. I needed portable speakers for my iPOD in my guitar studio.
I was pleasantly surprised after I installed the speakers, which was very easy to do. The sound is rich and full. The remote makes it easy to move through the ipod from a remote location.
Everything needed comes with the speakers - making it a quick and easy install out of the box!

The sound was better than I expected, I have tried various configurations with the levels and with the EQ on the iPod to get the desired sound via the GENRE of the songs. Again - easy to do.

Check out their web site - they thought of everything.

For the size and convenience of these speakers, and the associated cost, you get excellent sound quality.
I like to play my iPod with this much clarity. I like to play/charge my iPod in a way that rivals much larger and more expensive systems, and at the same time have the wireless feature of Airport Express and iTunes at my fingertips.

If you're looking for speakers to play your iPod through, if you want quality, flexibility, and something that sounds really good, and is built like a tank while looking beautiful, look no further. Sierra Sound's iN Studio 5.0 won't disappoint you.

The ultimate test for me was SIDE 2 of ABBEY ROAD - these speakers handled it very well!

Oh and the folks at Sierra Sound are friendly and accessable via their web site! I have recommended these speakers to all my muscian friends!

Enjoy!

Spiderman (San Francisco) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sierra Sound IN Studio 5.0 Ins5B iPod Speaker Dock (Black) (Electronics)
Compared to any 'ipod dock' ... there is no comparison.
These are not portable like 'pick up and walk around room to room' but how often do you really do that anyway?
This is real sound. Base that can make dance and reggae move your insides.
They really do look good and with an airport express plugged in the back you can send your whole laptop music to it accross your home wireless network. What more do you want?
Dont put up with tin pot sounds from these other all in one boxes. The sound is a world apart.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sierra Sound Machine, December 16, 2008
By 
Kuz "Kuz" (Tennessee by way of Jersey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sierra Sound IN Studio 5.0 Ins5B iPod Speaker Dock (Black) (Electronics)
Excellent sound reproduction for the price. We use it with our IPOD and XM radio in our pool (billiard) room. Easily fills the room with blues/rock 'n roll/jazz/classical/acoustic.

Easily portable.....essentially two boxes and a speaker wire. All cables and acessories included. Good match for the fit and finish of an IPOD.

Only very minor complaint is that base is a little muddy similar to a Bose speaker. I would definitely buy this product again.
