They’re actually quite old and are my next item to be upgraded/replaced. I bought them maybe 8 years ago now. I believe it was this model, which I have absolutely no idea why it’s running so high in price, I got them for like $100 at the time. Probably due to it being out of print or something.

How about the Logitech z2300? Massive base, good audio for games, movies and electronic music. I’d definitely buy that again but don’t recommend it for badly soundproofed apartment buildings.

They work pretty good. The sound is a little unbalanced on mine because I bought the show model at Best Buy some time ago. It’s probably time to grab some new ones.

real answer: ipods are designed for casual listeners using headphones. As such, the balance is thrown off, especially at high volumes, to make things sound better through those stupid little ipod headphones.
As for ipod speakers, it is assumed that anyone who would buy one of those is going for style and not good sound, so they’re all made to look good, not sound good. I’m would assume the Bose one would sound better than any other brand, but, if you buy those, you’ll be paying a good 50% premium for the brand name.
If I were you and I really wanted to blast something, I’d probably go with this. Sure, there’s no pretty ipod dock but you basically save $200. If you go with speakers any more expensive than these, you probably want to first invest in a better audio source than an ipod.

Also willing to trade a Logitech Z2300 plus cash/PayPal.

Someone who has auditioned both stereo HomePods and the Z2300 is free to talk me out of it. The Z2300 sounds amazing and I’m not sure if stereo HomePods would be much of an upgrade (if anything, the lack of audio inputs on the HomePod is likely worse).
