Will the original (narrow) ipod work with this system?

Good question! According to the ad it is supposed to. I have the newest generation and it didn't work for me but I don't know why

If I am not mistaken, the 6th generation has the USB to wide iPod connector cable. If so, yes. It it is the narrow one, it won't work. My wife just bought me a Nano 7th generation for Christmas... I am going to need an adapter &lt;sigh&gt;

Depends on if you want a wireless connection you device needs to be Bluetooth enabled. I don't think the original IPods had Bluetooth. That said, you can connect the original IPod to the jambox with a cord and it will work fine

You will need to purchase an adapter to use the old ipod with this device...

This unit WILL work with the I-POD Classic, at least it works with MINE. VERY portable, very easy to use. GREAT SOUND. 'C' batteries last many hours so you're not encumbered with a power cord.

I have the older model which uses a wide connector. The newer ones use a smaller one. You'd best take your IPod to a store and try it out

I have the 3rd generation (new one) 32 GB IPOD Touch. Works great with this unit. Only problem. The IPOD played perfectly with the default dock adapter, but is a little jiggly. I took that adapter out and replaced it with the one that came with my IPOD. I could not get enough clearance. The IPOD wouldn't make the connection - wouldn't play. I replaced it with the adapter it came with. No one else has this complaint. Plays great music. Also, it's my understanding that the 2nd and 3rd gen IPOD Touch are identical physically, so it shouldn't be a problem. To be safe, this is available in store at Target for $79. 90 day return policy.

I don't know for sure about a classic but mine works with my iPod touch 2nd generation but the remote doesn't work the iPod controls. The sound is amazing though.

Nope, this one seems to only support the 5th generation iPods according to some of the reviewers, which would be the original iPod Video models that came out around 2005 I think. Aside from a noted problem with certain docking software updates, the physical space in which to mount the iPod is fitted specifically for the Classic-sized iPods and not the iPhone or iPod Touch.

It has the traditional 30 pin interface. The area for the iPod to rest is big enough to accomidate most iPods and cases. So long as the device is using the original Apple interface then yes, it will work. It also has an audio in put option so you could also in connect it that way.

yes. it will work with any ipod that has the older (larger) charging dock. but if your dock is older/worn/loose AT ALL, you will likely experience intermittent connection losses if the adapter is moved even slightly.

I don't use that iPod specifically, but has an iPod dock so it should work just fine.

Yes. I think that is the iPod I have and it works perfectly with this base. If you have one of the new iPods which have the new smaller connector, you can get a separate adapter which can work with this base.

You would have to buy an adapter to allow it to dock in the old wider ipod/iphone port but yes it can connect

It should work with any MP3 Player or CD/DVD player with a standard jack to use the built-in speakers. The iFit is misleading that it is related to the iPod. iFit is an extra module that you purchase if you want the iFit functionality. FYI - I still have one squeak I have not been able to get rid of, other than that it is a great system.

Any older dock will do fine with the ipod nano 16 gb. I have an ih4, which is really old, and it worked with my ipod nano 4th generation. If you upgrade to the ipod touch 2nd generation however, think about getting this model. Anyways, to make my point clear, ANY OLDER IPOD DOCK WILL WORK WITH THE IPOD NANO 4TH GENERATION. And to answer your primary question, yes, I would think that if an older ipod dock is compatible with my ipod nano 16 gb, yours would be fine with this dock. But check other sources before you get this model. I'm just guessing bassed on common sense and past experiences with ihome. Any older dock will do fine with the ipod nano 16 gb.

All iPods should work if you have it plugged into the USB port in the front. But do you mean the 5th generation touch, nano or the old classic?
