The perfect iPod on bike remote?

I'd have to be carefull as to what i put on the playlists if it was anything to hardout i'd stack it straight away...........maybe a lazy sunday volume might do the trick

So I went to the Griffin site - saw that Magnum Mac are stockists and went and had a shopping frenzy.
I bought the itrip - http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/itrip_mini/
Results so far are not as good as hoped for in the car, but excellent around the house. The Merc's radio aerial is concealed somewhere and a quick scout didn't spot a way to get the unit closer - but it pumps on the home stereo.

I also got the ear jam ear plug extensions

Excellent! They give bass. They take the standard phones to a better quality sound than the Sonys that most of us like. They would not be as good for - on bike as the sonys because they protrude from your lug hole further and would be uncomfortable is a helmet - but otherwise a good $26.

I got a dock (apple) that has an out socket so it's hard wired to the office stereo now. (rather than though the phones jack as it was before)

And a rubber case for inside the jacket pocket on rides.

Good stuff thanks for the link again badcat - cost me 2 hundy but i'm well pleased.

If I'd known you could have had our Itrip cheap, never mind.

Good old 20-20 hindsight eh.
They aren't that expensive anyway.

the earjams make a huge diff.. I quite like the iPod earphones, and to buy some of the higher spec ones cost way more than I'm willing to shell out on 2 tiny speakers. The earjams jam in my head pretty well, and I can still make out music fairly well at well over 100kph. And the sound quality just jumps up. Bass is stronger, highs are clearer, the sound doesn't have to be no where near as high as before.. best $25 I spent for a while..
