With access to services like Spotify, Grooveshark and Rdio, your music is with you wherever you are. You don’t need to deal with CDs or computers to pump out some sweet jams in the living room, the party or even the beach. But that just leaves one problem… the speakers. Even if you crank your iPhone to maximum output you’ll barely be able to hear it over the crashing waves, spilling beers or dancing. If you don’t want to be tethered to a power outlet, which kind of defeats the purpose of having wireless access in the first place, you need something like this iHome iW1 AirPlay Wireless Audio System. Stream music from any iDevice with AirPlay or from iTunes using Wifi and the Bongiovi Acoustics powered iW1 doesn’t need any cables. If you do decide to go battery operated and there’s no wifi around, just plug in your device with USB.
