Below are some entries from Facebook of people giving audio advice; I decided to keep my opinion to myself...LOL
In-home stereo question: What's a decent system we can plug an iPhone into and get good base and some volume? My 25 year old antique speakers (size of a barn) were 150 watts. We want to be able to thump when desired. But not looking to break the bank?

We're really happy with our polk audio dock. Ted did the purchasing so he'll have to advise on pricing.

Best Buy and grab there Yamaha small amp and complete system. Comes with a nice little sub, 5 small surround speakers and amp with jack for iphone. Or small Bose sounds good as well

Only Bose. Buy quality - cry once. Especially if you plan on thumping occasionally.

Teri nailed it! I used a little Bose iPod dock for boot camp. Fills the entire gym with deep sound and no distortion.

For the price, you're not going to do better than the Bose Mini Soundlink. I've have a JBL as well as two Bose Sounddocks. The Sounddocks are better tan the Mini Soundlink, but not by a ton. The Mini is much cheaper, too,
Bose for sure!

I haven't checked out sonos but I love Bose. I know they can be pricey but they're worth every penny.

Bose is so high quality that it can make Nickelback sound good. Ok, it's not that good, but you get the point.
