Can I connect an iphone4s with a otterbox defender series case to this system without having to remove the case?

No The best thing to do is either take it out of the case or get a 30 pin male to female connector for unit

I won't say for certain, however, the jack that it sits on is pretty deep. I used it many times with a case before I made it wireless (using an Airport Express) and I never had issues. Wasn't even close to being a problem. I honestly think you'd be fine.

I doubt it, I have to remove my 4S from the skinit case for the plug to go in deep enough to connect. I don't know how hard it is to remove an iphone from an otterbox, but I really love these speakers so it would be worth it to me.

for my case- the case- had to be removed for the dock connector to interface correctly

Not really, you can connect using the headphone jack to the Aux in audio port on the iP1, but sound is not as good - plus you will not get charged this way. Only other way to do it is by using an airport express connected to the aux in on the iP1 and then you can stream via airplay, still no charge to the battery. So really no way without some workarounds. I just remove my Mophie case and dock my 4s into the iP1.

Probably not as only a very very thin case would work. I had a ballistic case and always had to take it off to dock it

Yes, though only if it is a slim case. There is an insert on the dock that can be removed if using a case.

I don't have to remove my otter box case on my iPhone 4s and it also works w my daughters' iPhones 5 and 5s- it fits fine. They each have one of these aux cables.I hope my answer was helpful to you :)

it is just the otterbox defender case that says on the box to use with the iphone4 which i have. it has the three openings at the top instead of the larger opening. so with the small openings it blocks the sensor on the iphone4, so it is not good for the iphone4. i opened it up and had to break a piece of the plastic off of it, so my sensor would work. i am still using it but i should not have had to break something off of it, you know. no worries. i will get another one .. one day. just thought people would want to know that the sensor on iphone4 does not work with this case. Thank you for your email. Have a blessed day. it is just the otterbox defender case that says on the box to use with the iphone4 which i have. it has the three openings at the top instead of the larger opening. so with the small openings it blocks the sensor on the iphone4, so it is not good for the iphone4. i opened it up and had to break a piece of the plastic off of it, so my sensor would work. i am still using it but i should not have had to break something off of it, you know. no worries. i will get another one .. one day. just thought people would want to know that the sensor on iphone4 does not work with this case.

Depends on how deep and wide the recess is that the case creates. Many people will find that the connector fits on their case, but people using something bulky like an otterbox defender may have issues. This of course can always be fixed with a third party cable with straight connectors, but may look funny.

i can not help you because i don't have an ipod 4th generation touch with the defender otterbox

There is nothing about the mount that is inherently related to connecting to a stereo. It does have a USB port and allows full access to the headphone port, so any way you can connect your phone without the case still works with the case.

I have an iPhone 5S with an Otter Box and the cable fits perfectly without me needing to remove the case. I would assume it would be the same for the iPhone 4S.

I have a Galaxy S4 with an otterbox defender case and I do not have to remove the case for it to slide it it's a snug fit.

No. Neither the iPod or iPhone will attach with a case. I have an Otterbox on my phone and I have to remove it to attach it to the iHome.

I found this dock works only without the case. I had to remove my very thin silicone case In order for the phone to fit in the dock.

I dock my iphone4S with an Element Case and it has no problems. The Element case is an Aluminum Bumper with a self sticking pistol grip on the back. It easily takes a radtech (or similar product) dock extender for larger cases.

No. The charger has a USB connection. One end in the charger, other in your phone. Simple as that. No case removal should be necessary.

No the iPhone needs to be taken out of any case to fit in this mount. I have the iPhone 4 and 5 versions.

Yes. There are holes on both bottom corners. I have no problems putting it in or taking it out with my iPhone 4S with its Lifeproof case. I can see where the Otterbox will be a problem.

No you should not have to remove the case because it uses a cord to plug into your headphones jack of the device and you just set your device into the dock.

Yes. I have an Otter case and it works great. You do not have to remove the case. You put the jack in the same as earphones.
