Customer Reviews
Great Sound, Small Package 
2008-08-05
The im9 sound great, and to my benefit, is extremely light. I recently took it on a river trip, and it performed admirably for three days on the same batteries. The only drawback, for me, is the fact that the Nano adapter does not fit my 2nd gen. Makes me wonder if a first gen would even fit, or if Altec Lansing just went 'whatever' when they made the thing. I tried to get them to replace it, but they said they'd send a "replacement", leading me to believe it would be the same as the one in the box. Their customer service definitely leaves something to be desired. That said, I give it 4 stars, all for the sound quality.
Decent Sound, Awesome Portability 2008-07-10
The sound quality on this Ipod player is decent. The bass is a little flat but it's hard to expect more from something so small. The portability is great. Plugs into the wall to charge, uses C batteries when you can't plug in. Ruggedly built. Seems like it can hold up to some abuse.
Overall, for the price it's not bad. I'm happy with it.
Excellent value!

I have one of my own and purchased another for my daughter. Has a wonderful clear sound. Is a great product!
BAM 2008-06-06
I love this unit. It has great sound for such small speakers and it is great for outdoor gatherings. Two friends ordered this system after hearing mine.
Performs as advertised and reviewed 2008-06-01
This product performs well. I use it to listen to music while driving a city bus. It is rugged and protects my iPod as well. The sound is very nice. I've also been using it on my back porch when I have friends over as well and it's just perfect for producing background music and providing atmosphere.
Great Sound 2008-05-20
In less-than-ideal surroundings, you can't count on every room to have concert hall acoustics. The iM9speaker system is a good choice for the dorm room or any room. It's compact, so it fits just about anywhere and is easy to carry while delivering high-volume, high-quality sound. Shockresistant, rubberized elements ensure durability. It comes with a rugged backpack-style carry bag and it fits, syncs&charges all dockable iPods and links iPod video and iPod photo players to a TV set. An amplified extension of your iPod, the inMotion iM9 replaces headphone listening and delivers high quality, crystal-clear sound. Folds to close at Width 11 x Depth 3 x Height 7.8 inches, 280 mm x 76 mm x 198 mm Input jack for second device connection, including CD&DVD players The compact, lightweight speaker system that goes just about anywhere you want to listen to music Designed to be tough, the inMotion iM9 is durable enough for advanced outdoor use Backpack-style carry bag Dimension - Width 13.27 x Depth 12.48 x Height 6.93 inches, Width 337 mm x Depth 317 mm x Height 176 mm Weight 4 pounds (1.8 kg)
Very disappointed with service and product just ok 
2008-05-07
After doing extensive research on portable Ipod systems, I chose the iM9 because of the rave reviews. While the sound is fine (although I was initially very disappointed since my expectations were high after all the wonderful reviews) the worst has been the terrible, wretched, unbelievably bad "customer service" from Altec Lansing. In the product description, it claims that it comes with international plug adapters. One of the reasons I purchased the iM9 is that I travel extensively abroad and planned to use those plugs. The plugs did not come in the box as advertised, and trying to get a response or anyone even remotely competent on the phone or by email at Altec is impossible. If it weren't such a hassle and expense to return things, I would send it back.
works great 2008-05-05
Sound is good and all is great. The only minor complaint is that I have a nano and the cradle that they give you for the nano doesn't fit.
Satisfied 2008-04-28
The Im9 is as expected, sound quality is very good, easy to use. There is a noticable pop or click at the beginning and end of a song as discribed in other reviews as well as the volume is somewhat high when first turned on. Battery life is excellent and the quality more than makes up for the negative issues.
Worst Customer Service Ever 2008-03-18
I purchased an InMotion 9 speaker in December. It came with an AC wall outlet plug not for the USA, but one for Asia. Afer a very long hold 27 minute period in the queue on January 3, I was helped and told that I would receive a new outlet plug within 5-6 business days.
LONG STORY SHORT, IT IS MARCH 18, 2008 AND I STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PLUG. Every time I call (and it's every 7-10 days), the plugs are due in tomorrow, next week or "it's in the mail to you." Today I spoke to a new manager and he will FedEx me a plug tonight because "they are always in stock." I would like to believe him, and am hopeful...
I will NOT but any product from Altec Lansing again after being treated like this. This is pathetic.
