The iHome iHC5S is one of those incredible multi-gadgets that pack maybe one-too-many features into a single system. Fortunately in this case the features all seem to pretty much go together, unlike the stranger combination found Mini-Fridge we saw earlier this month.

iHome has put together a clock radio that connects wirelessly via the Handsfree, Headset, AVRCP and A2DP Bluetooth profiles to give a system that integrates with Bluetooth enabled mobile phones. The Clock Radio Speaker System, as iHome descriptively calls it, has the ability to receive streaming music from your phone and play it through the 4 built-in stereo speakers. It also lets you control the playback through the system or an included remote control. The alarm clock also allows you to wake up to a buzzer, radio or the streamed music from your phone.

Here’s yet another soundbar to enhance your flat panel home theatre experience. This one is from Artison and it’s called plainly enough the SoundBar. It will run you around $1,200.

The Artison SoundBar attaches to flat panel televisions 37-inches and above. It was designed by speaker designer Cary Christie and sports three front channels of sound, which consist of five, one-inch tweeters and six, three-inch mid-ranges. These deliver a frequency response of 80 Hz. Matching grilles are included and optional stands are available as well.

Take some decent quality notebook speakers. Add in a multi-port USB hub. What do you get? The new Logitech AudioHub, priced at around $100 and available in October.

The Logitech AudioHub offers up an an adjustable one-piece, three-chamber speaker system with an integrated subwoofer teamed with a three port USB hub. The AudioHub has a low-profile design, says Logitech, measuring three-and-a-half inches in height. It comes with a cable management system on its base and a cable hook on the back to take care of cable clutter.

I bet here’s a question you’ve always pondered - what should I do with that unused area beneath my flat panel monitor? Stick pencils there? Altec Lansing is betting it has a more interesting option to fill that space - the new FX3020 SoundBar Speaker System, priced at around $100 and available in October.

The FX3020 SoundBar Speaker System is rectangular, one piece and low profile so it fits nicely underneath your monitor. The drivers are “precision-angled” and there’s also sound widening technology which is supposed to give you that full room sound experience. Throw in some bass technology, a single control knob and a side-positioned auxiliary input and you are ready to party.

Nokia has some new, small portable speakers that were launched along side their XpressMusic phones to give a handy and portable way to share music on the go. Nokia says that the Mini MD-6 speakers give “great sound” in full stereo from your mobile devices when you on the move, but what we really like about it is the case design.

The MD6 comes in just under a 5-inch case in which the top hinges open to expose two small speakers, and protects them when closed. They then connect to your media player through 3.5mm AV connector (headphone jack?). The specs also mention that the speakers have a built-in FM radio antenna which must be for bringing better FM reception to your player since the speakers don’t appear to have any FM tuner controls on it.

As Morpheus said in “The Matrix”, “No one can tell you what the Matrix is. You have to experience it for yourself.” That sounds like what we will have to do when Sony brings out its SRS-ZX1 speakers on October 20 in the Japanese market.

Looking a little bit like a spy cam, these speakers utilize a new proprietary technology that Sony calls “Mobius Duct” that supposedly makes for a more forceful low frequency wave. The speakers measure 3.1 x 6.6 x 7.4-inches, have two channels of 20W output, a built-in amp, a remote control and two analog inputs.

JBL is preparing to unleash another iPod accessory on the masses in the form of a new version of its popular On Stage speakers. The JBL On Stage 3, which will be available in black or white, should be out by October.

The JBL On Stage 3 comes with universal dock adaptors to work with most iPod models. It can be made portable via a six AA battery option. Four integrated speakers in this docking station provide six-watts of audio power per channel and an included remote offers wireless control up to 10 metres away.

This splash-proof speaker/case provides a dry sanctuary for your media player allowing you to listen to it in places that aren’t so dry such as at a pool, in the shower or in the rain. The sound is heard through a single speaker, and similar to the iPod shower dock we saw earlier this year, once your player is enclosed in the case there is unfortunately really no way to control its functionality without taking it out.

Inside the case there’s a standard headphone jack to connect the player to the external speaker and the cases speaker volume can then be adjusted from the outside. The case provides a padded interior and measures 6.25″H x 3.5″W x 2″D, retailing for $14.99.

Jabra has set of portable notebook speakers that can also double as a personal headset when the volume is turned down.

You get your iPod docking/charging station with manual and remote control of audio features as well as LCD display of what’s currently playing. You get a digital FM/AM radio with presets.

Logic3 is marked today as the first to launch a speaker dock made specifically for the iPhone, which not surprisingly has been named the i-Station Traveller for iPhone. The system consists of a couple 4-watt, 35mm neodymium driven speakers and a dock that can accommodate the iPhone either vertically or horizontally.

To help make the Traveller more travel friendly the speakers will actually slide together to enclose the docking area and make the whole works only 170mm wide. The device is also compatible with any iPod or any media player that has a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. We’re thinking that the iPhone probably connects through the headphone jack as well.

The iPhone speaker dock is expected to be available soon from Logic3 retailing for around $60.
