Griffin Technology Inc., creator of all things iPod, today announced the company began shipping two new speaker systems for iPod - Amplifi and Journi. This release marks Griffin's official entry into the expanding portable media player speaker business.
Amplifi (TM) is a high-tech contemporary styled 2.1 sound system.With its compact tabletop footprint, sturdy wood-based construction, and acoustically tuned enclosure, this system is sure to rock your tunes in any room.
Amplifi will happily accept audio input from almost any source through its built-in 3.5mm (1/8") input jack. But Amplifi is especially friendly to iPod, with a convenient docking port on top, and 6 adapters/spacers for a secure fit for any iPod model from iPod mini to 5th generation iPod with video.
To top it off, Amplifi comes with its own slim IR remote.

2.1 (left/right/bass channels) sound system
Two 2.75" high/midrange speakers plus a 5" woofer with bass reflex port

JourniTM, Griffin's personal mobile speaker system, has great sound wrapped up in a rugged, tuck-under-your-arm & go-anywhere package. Charge Journi up, slip your iPod into Journi's dock, and hit the road.
The innovative Wrapstand(TM) exterior protects Journi and your iPod when you're on the go, then flips open to create its own stand.
High-efficiency internal Lithium-Ion batteries recharge with the included AC adapter or through your computer's powered USB port (we call it Dual Fuel technology). Your iPod sits center stage in Journi's adjustable docking bay. The included remote gives you control over playback volume and track selection on the connected iPod.
