What's the best speaker system for an iPod touch in the $100 to $250 range?
Good for a small party (i.e. a dinner party for six on the deck, not a dance party for 60!).

The clear winner to my ears and wallet was the Altec Lansing inMotion iM600
HOWEVER!!!!
If you use an iPhone you'll have to put it in airplane mode or you'll hear crazy sounds from time to time.
It works fine with my 1st gen iPhone and charges the phone as well, it will work with a 3G iPhone as well, but won't recharge the battery.
Altec has apparently solved these problems with the newer.. Altec Lansing T612 which is only $50 more and better on many fronts.. http://astore.amazon.com/apple-ipod-touch-20/detail/B0014XKQY2

Wireless, rechargeable speakers, great sound, easy to add more speakers to the system for a party. A great value at only $299. Pick one up used or just spend the extra few bucks...you won't regret it!
Personal experience (I've had one for about 6 months)

M$I have owned a Boston Acoustics Receptor Radio for several years now and have loved the sound of it, this was mostly in part to its 3.5" full range driver. The iDS2 has two of those drivers in it with an iPod dock on top of the unit. It's an all-in-one unit so there are no extra wires hanging around and its easy to move room to room. The design is dead simple, a power button and two volume buttons, everything you need, nothing you don't. It has a composite video output, USB port (for syncing an iPod), Aux input (to connect it to a PC, TV, DVD, etc...) and power outlet (for the removable cable).
It has a nice frequency range and pack a surprising amount of bass for such a small unit, yet retains full mids and clean treble, easily sounds better than the usual Bose, Altec Lansing, JBL suspects. Besides the great sound, my second favorite aspect of this unit is its simple design, I don't care about radios, clocks, alarms and the dozens of buttons and lights that go with them in other units. I just want something that sounds good, is simple to use and has a nice clean look to it (like the iPod itself). Both the Bose SoundDock and the iDS2 have that, but I found the iDS2 sounds quite a bit better and costs quite a bit less than the Bose. It retails for $180 but I found mine for $150 on Amazon.com.

The Gear4 HouseParty III is a good stereo speaker system for your iPod as well but it's around $250. It's good for parties obviously, especially since you can access your playlist with a remote. AND it's an alarm
However, I still like the Altec speakers better though! I've included an informative link in the source box. Hope this helps!

The Rechargeable Indoor/Outdoor Wireless Speakers. They are wireless, and they are also compact, yet work well for a small dinner party. I like the handle on top because they are easy to carry around. For $199.95, these speakers are just what you are looking for!
