Top 5 Portable Speakers

iHome iDM12

The iHome iDM12 Portable Rechargeable Speaker System is a portable wireless speaker system for your iPad, iPhone, and iPod and other devices too. The cylinder shaped iDM12 is more than 7" long. The single Micro-USB connector in the back takes either power or music. There is a small clip cover in the back that is actually a stand to keep the speakers upright. The price of this speaker is 3,597.

The rechargeable batteries are not designed to be replaced. The iDM12 recommended mode of operation is to stream music from your iPad over Bluetooth within 30 feet, and charge the speaker battery via USB. It does not have power adapter, but uses a combination USB/audio cable to charge.

The iDM12 sound suffers from its size; there is not that much space inside the speakers. It uses two active speaker drivers and one passive radiator. The overall sound quality is decent.
