Headphones and docking station for Ipod.

[Nigel]

It's my Dads birthday soon and he wants some new headphones and a docking station. Can anyone recommend any?

Headphones, he wants the small ones that go in your ear, but he wants them with the band that goes over your head. £30 max.

Docking station (his ipod is a light green 8gb nano) anything really. £90 max. Do you need adaptors to fit different ipods or does it all come in the box?

I use Headphone without the band over the head, so can't help. But this might help http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID?nnmm=browse&mco=D668C3ED&node=home/ipod_accessories/headphones

Best Dock I would say is the Apple Universal iPod Dock. It works with the Apple Remote Control (Not Included). But you get little adapters with it so that no matter what type of iPod you have it becomes a snug fit. Plus you can take an audio line out from the back or plug it in to the main to charge, Or both at the same time.

my mum bought the Bose one, expensive but the sound quality is awesome, and so loud

Turnby, thanks for the links. These sennheiser ones are the kind of thing I'm looking for!

As for the docking station I'd love to get him the bose one but it's far to expensive for where it's going to be used. He wants a dock with integrated speakers as well.

Griff, that looks to be just the job. It gets decent reviews as well.

Thanks everyone.

Just one of these too :approve:

Loads of stuff for ipods on ebay Nigel pretty good prices too thats where most of my stuff came from bar the above.

Hi Maz, I'm really dubious of Ebay after all the stuff I hear on here about non delivery, paypal and stuff! I haven't used it for more than a year now. I'd love to get him the Bose one but it's a bit out of my price range for his birthday. Thanks anyway.
