Abstract: A rising crop of iPad-specific dockable stereo systems was an eventuality, and Altec Lansing has done its part with the new Octiv Stage (MP450), which is as much an adjustable iPad stand with speakers on the bottom as it is the converse. This is good...
Compact design. Excellent rotating docking arm allows for vertical, horizontal and even flat viewing.
Poor audio performance for the price. Remote control does not navigate the iPad well. Can't use alarm apps—even ones from Altec Lansing.
Slowly but surely, the iPad speaker docks are rolling out, and the Altec Lansing Octiv Stage (MP450) gets the physical design right, but lacks stellar sound or a useful remote. Buy it now...
Holds iPad in landscape or portrait, Charges through its wall charger, Offers a variety of viewing angles, Sounds good and gets quite loud for its size, Truly enjoyable to use
Remote offers limited functionality; iPad cannot be used in a case; No sound “tweaks” built-in; Designed specifically for a product that is over 6 months old and will soon be refreshed with a design that might, or might not, be the same

Support pour iPad bien conçu, Compatible avec les modes portrait et paysage, Réglage de l'inclinaison, Station d'accueil robuste, Télécommande avec l'accès à toutes les fonctions
Prix élevé dans l'absolu, Rendu audio médiocre, Intérêt de l'entrée auxiliaire ?
Vous l'aurez compris, l'usage de la station d'accueil Altec Lansing Octiv 450 est plutôt limité et son prix élevé se pose comme une véritable tare. Vendu aux alentours de 150 euros, l'Octiv 450 trouvera certainement son public qui cherche une station ...
Abstract: Der nach hinten schwenkbare Halter ist allerdings für das iPad gemacht. Seine Aufgabe erfüllt die Soundstation gut: Der Klang sehr ordentlich, auch der Bass kann sich hören lassen. Besonders eignet sich die Station natürlich für Filmfans. Der Herstelle...
Wer ein iPad sein Eigen nennt, wird sich über das Octiv 450 Dock von Altec Lansing freuen. Mit seiner Hilfe wird das iPad zum Mini-Heimkinosystem – ideal für die Reise, im Büro oder im auch Schlafzimmer. Jochen SchmittTestredaktion Playerzur Ausstattun...
