The Altec Lansing Octiv 650 sounds very good for an iPod/iPhone speaker dock and works as a full-featured alarm clock after you add Altec's free Alarm Rock app. The component/composite video output on the back also allows you to play iPod/iPhone video on your TV with an optional cable and a remote is included.

Zeppelin Air is the ultimate AirPlay wireless speaker system; the best sounding Zeppelin yet, it features dramatic changes over previous models. Plus it is the first premium iPod speaker to feature the new Apple AirPlay wireless streaming technology.
Its fully active 2.1 design means that all five units are individually driven by dedicated audiophile class D amplifiers, which were specially designed for Bowers & Wilkins. The improved 4x25 Watts + 1x50 Watts output powers improved drive units, many of which are smaller for improved dispersion. The addition of Bowers & Wilkins Flowport technology and advanced Digital Signal Processing has dramatically improved the bass performance. The DACs have also been upgraded, with new 24bit/96KHz capability for improved performance.
