iHome’s new iAV2 is the second speaker for Amazon’s Echo Dot that we’ve seen from the prolific speaker maker, coming in alongside the iHome iAV5 that we looked at earlier this year. The idea behind both models is to provide a “Spot for your Dot” (as iHome puts it), enhancing Amazon’s rather anemic-sounding Dot speaker into something that you might actually want to listen to music with, while also using the Echo Dot as the brains of the speaker to add voice assistant capabilities. In short, iHome delivers the audio experience, while Amazon provides the smarts.
