Speaker Review: Altec Lansing inAir 5000
Freed of the 30-pin connectors, buttons and recessed charging ports required on traditional smartphone speaker docks, AirPlay device manufacturers are given the liberty to pursue more creative designs. We’ve seen some oddball shapes as the result.
This AirPlay speaker, the Altec Lansing inAir 5000, is one of the more striking specimens — it’s shaped like a giant axe head, with the “blade” pointing toward the sky.

Easy to Use
- Access your iTunes library or stream from the cloud in any room. Multiple units can be linked throughout your home or office for a seamless listening experience. The inAir Guide App walks you through the easy set up that will have your music playing in minutes.
Legendary Altec Lansing Sound Quality
-Unique, non-parallel walls deliver clarity and minimal loss through the entire tonal range. Adaptive DSP (digital signal processing) widens the sound field, tames high frequencies and offers lower bass response.
Flexibility
-The inAir 5000 provides a variety of auxiliary connection ports: USB port for additional device charging and firmware updating; 3.5mm auto-detecting headphone jack; Ethernet connection for wired use; and auxiliary device input .
Designed for an Extraordinary Sound Experience
- Shaped to create a purity of sound, the combination of neodymium tweeters, Kevlar mid-range drivers and long-throw bass offers a listening experience unlike any you’ve ever experienced.
Alternatively, you can configure it by connecting to a network it creates temporarily through a browser on your computer, or using WPS on supported routers. You can then send music wireless straight from an iOS device running iOS 4.2 - which can only stream to one speaker at a time - or by streaming music to one or more speakers from i-Tunes on your PC or Mac.
