The SoundDock portable was similar in concept except it included a battery with a lifespan of up to 14 hours. Bose released a spin-off product, the SoundDock portable, in 2007. The SoundDock Portable is Made for iPod certified for this iPod and allows you to charge, play audio and control your 4th Generation iPod touch with the remote for this system. So I am NOT able to charge my 6th generation iPod nano on it because the iPod nano series dropped charging through FireWire since 4th generation. The first generation SoundDock had a remote control and a charging spot for Apple’s iPod. The Bose SoundDock Portable Digital Music System is fully compatible with the 4th Generation iPod touch. My Bose SoundDock is one of the earliest modules from 2004 - the Series I model which charge the iPod through FireWire.This allows me to access the headphone jack unhindered to plug in the headphones which act as antenna in the FM radio mode.įurther notes regarding compatibility of iPod Nano 6th gen and Bose SoundDock Series I: Altec Lansing used to have some SoundDock killers. I used this dock extension cable so that I dont have to physically place the iPod into the dock cradle. I am able to play FM Radio on the Sounddock using the iPod. I have a small collection old Bose Series I SoundDocks that provide great audio quality in a small package, but that we cant use because they all require a phone or iPod with a 30-pin connector.

What is this? This is a 6th generation iPod Nano docked into Bose SoundDock Series I. Adding Bluetooth to a SoundDock 10 is different, but Ive covered how to do that in another instructable: Add Bluetooth to a SoundDock 10.
