The Harman/Kardon Go + Play speakers (see CNET Review) is made for the iPod, but it doesn’t support some of the newer Apple iPod models, so you’ll want to check on that before getting too excited. If your iPod is compatible, though, Harman/Kardon Go + Play Speakers (they look like a boombox) will make any tunes you have on your MP3 Player sound great, with deep, rich bass.
These speakers have been around since 2007, but they still sound just as good. This spring, the speakers will be updated to work on newer model Apple iPods. You’ll want to check back for updates or keep tabs on the manufacturer’s website to make sure the speakers you buy are compatible with your Apple iPod.
All that aside, these are really good speakers for the Apple iPod, which is why they’ve been around for a couple years so far.
Beyond the great audio, the design of the speakers is very cool. They look almost like some piece of modern art. Or maybe the very top of a robot’s head? Whatever you think they look like, remember that they sound good too.
They’re a bit pricey, but in today’s world, the phrase “you get what you pay for” is very true.
Overall, these speakers have to be recommended for both their sleek design and their high-end sound.

Til next time, kick the bass up, and keep the tunes flowing on your MP3 player.
