Which ip4 speaker dock?

[Glaucus]

Wethers beautiful so it's time to spend evenings in the garden. Last summer had one of those cheap tube ones. But it had several problems, wasn't loud enough, kept saying wasn't compatable and the very annoying interference sound.
So can anyone recommend something which doesn't have those issues and if it takes AA batteries even better as I have some good rechargeable ones.

I recently bought my wife the Philips Fidelio Docking speaker DS3500. I liked it because it takes the ipad as well even in a skin. Small portable and easily connected via bluetooth, so the phone can stay in my pocket. Takes 4 AA's and is light and portable.

There's a few user reviews on youtube. I always connect it via bluetooth when using the ipad as it never seems so secure to me.
