Homedics DP-300 DocknParty iPod Docking Station White with interchangeable faces Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It looks good, but it sounds terrible! I love that it can change colors to match your iPod, but a pretty package doesn't do much good if the sound quality stinks. The music comes out all distorted and crackly! Rather like a cheap radio trying to tune into a station too far away. We tried my iPod Nano and my husband's iPhone, both sounded terrible.

Koda iP915 iStereo Clock Radio Speaker for iPod Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Wal-Mart's around here (NC) have been selling these units on clearance for $50. I'm honestly amazed how good the sound is from this relatively small unit. It's very clear with great range. Even low-range has a nice thump to it.
Now I don't have an ipod right now, I'm just using the AUX input. However, this device can apparently control any ipod avaliable, including ipod Videos. Yes, it's got TV out.
Build quality is actually very good. It's rather heavy and everything feels very tight. The three buttons (power, volume up and down) all have a satisfying click to them. I wish I could say the same about the credit card remote (which is required for most features) but it gets the job done.
The display is just a basic, inverted LCD. The clock always displays, but also is stuck in 24-hour mode. To the right shows the station or volume. That's about it; perhaps more avaliable when an ipod is being used, but again, I don't have one.
All in all, highly recommended!

iHome iH8 Clock Radio for iPod (Silver) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Update Feb 7, 2010.... I wrote my original review almost 2 years ago. And, as I said, I liked the unit so well that I bought a 2nd. But now that I've used them for a couple years, they both have become unusable as alarm clocks. I assume dust has worked its way under the wheels used to set the clock. Now you can spin the wheels but the alarm time remains the same. Happened on both units. Call me old fashioned but that is too soon for these things to wear out...and the fact that both units have the same problem indicates a design flaw.
Also, I was not pleased that with my newer iPod connected, my radio would just be total static. It was tolerable, only because I preferred to wake up to the iPod, but I should be able to wake up to the iPod and radio, not just to the iPod or static.
So, I've changed my rating from a 4 to a 2. These things weren't that expensive, but combine the design problems with the fact that both units no longer allow me to change the time of the alarm, and it makes this product something I would not recommend.

SONIC IMPACT ROXY iPOD i-P23 PORTABLE SPEAKERS Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These speakers were more than I expected in quality and sound. I reviewed and shopped for a week before I made my final decision. For the price you can't beat this set up. The only minor "issue" I found with them is when I put my iTouch 2nd generation on it and I'm leaning over to change the volume up or down, sometimes I acidentally knock the iTouch off the connector and I have to rehook it back up so that's a minor annoyance. However, for what it offers in price and quality it's worth the annoyance. In the future a remote would be ideal.

JBL On Stage 400P Speaker Dock for iPhone/iPod (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I read up about several iPod speaker docks before I decided on this one. The gizmodo ipod dock face-off helped a lot in my decision (http://i.gizmodo.com/5211025/ipod-dock-8+way-battlemodo). They tested several well known brand docks against each other including JBL, Sony, Bose, Altec Lansing, Klipsch, and Logitech. This JBL dock came out on top even over the Bose and after listening to it for a while now I can see why.
Crystal clear sound, deep clear bass, crisp mids and highs. What especially surprised me was the bass. I wasn't aware that such deep bass could be produced from a small ipod dock. I was able to listen to the Bose dock at Best Buy. Being in a huge store probably didn't help the bass but there was virtually no difference in sound between the two, and the JBL is less then half the price.
I personally like the design of the JBL over the Bose. A sexy silver and black oval shaped speaker with my iphone sitting on top. The speaker is shielded so there is no interference whatsoever from my iphone. And my iphone sits sturdy on the top with the correct adapter. The remote is also very useful as you can change volume, skip, pause, and navigate menus with it.
For me this is without a doubt the best ipod speaker dock on the market.

JBL On Stage Micro Portable Speaker Dock for iPod (Silver) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)[UPDATE: Suddenly the value appears to be with black and/or silver JBL Micros. In answer to a question, yes, the Micro comes with a small, compact power adapter. One caution: most iPod dock-speakers can be quite "fussy" about which iPod models they choose to charge and play or simply play and not charge. Check on the return policy of the product, especially if it's not coming directly from Amazon, and be sure to test it frequently and thoroughly for the first couple of weeks. It's not entirely clear what distinguishes the newer Micro II from this 2008 model, but I would assume that the newer model has been minimally tweaked to cover some newer players. Also, although Amazon's prices are among the most reasonable anywhere, some bargains can occasionally be found in warranteed refurb models through the JBL store (located on that "other" big site). Finally, in answer to the purists who find any discussion of speakers used to play MP3 files without merit, there are many degrees of compression in MP3 files, with 128 kbps by no means the "norm." Moreover, even at 128 kbps the differences in the quality of sound is often as dramatic as night and day among some of these little overachievers.]
Presently this JBL On Stage Micro is going for 60% below the price of any other color, making it a no-brainer pick-up among docking speakers normally selling on Amazon for $100 or slightly more. JBL is a stylish, quality brand manufactured by Harmon International--durable, dependable, crisp-sounding. Despite the sharply divided reviews, the sound quality of virtually all speakers in the $80-$150 range is the same, with minor variations subject to differences in taste. I've found popular rechargeable units such as those made by Altec and Logitech to be unstable--sometimes changing iPod models will throw them off completely, requiring a reset with no guarantee of a fix. The JBL Micro, on the other hand, can be depended upon to deliver with either its AC connection or AA non-recharging alkalines.
Best disregard low-end merchandise--iLuv, GPX, Colby, J-Win and, unless you're looking for a clock radio, iHome. The sound is best described as "plastic-like," clearly inferior to a monaural speaker such as that of a Tivoli, Sangean, or Boston Acoustics radio. If you want a substantially improved system, one that goes beyond merely "covering" the entire frequency range to "reproducing" the sounds of the actual instruments, think more in the $200-300 range and look for a Klipsch iGroove, Athena iVoice, or Bose Sound Dock (the drawback--they're not for portable, battery use).
[In response to some misleading reviews: the JBL Micro has proven one of the more durable systems in its price range, and it comes with exceptionally smart packaging (form-fitting, padded storage bag with places for the adapter, remote and cord), guaranteed to make a great impression even before it's been used. Finally, it indeed DOES have a volume control--the left button for softer; the right for louder. Bass is admittedly weaker than some models in this range, but treble is superior and power is ample. If you hear cabinet "rattling," back off on the volume of your source; if you get a loud "hum," simply do an off-on reset. And hang on to the tiny remote (or learn how to live without it). Harmon's answer to my question about a replacement is usually, "It's out of stock."

iHome iH52 Bookshelf System with AM/FM Radio and Dock for iPod (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought mine at Target. I put by iPod in the display model in the store, hit "play" and man...what a sound! No hiss, awsome bass. (Perhaps some other reviewers should take theirs back while they can and request an exchange.) With sound this good, I couldn't justify paying $150 more for the Apple HiFi.
We brought it home (paid $199 in the store) and my 12-year-old was able to direct installation with no difficulty. Yes, there ARE lots of cables, but they are logical, color coded and really not difficult to manage. You'll need a phillps or nut driver to attach the FM antenna.
It is designed for a bookshelf, but we set it up with the subwoofer (that big, heavy speaker mentioned in another review) under the bed and the speakers on opposite nightstands.
Sound is wonderful, the remote works perfectly...very intuitive. We did have to refer to the manual to set the clock, but that made sense first time round with the directions.
Only one "I wish"....I wish it had an alarm clock. And I wish I'd known they come in white. I'd have looked elsewhere for one to match my iPod. (Which is a 30G video model. Adapters for all the models were included. Check the package before you buy, mates.)
Happy listening!

Logitech AudioStation iPod Speaker System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this to replace the iHome clock radio. It certainly sounds better than the iHome (but don't expect an audiophile experience), but although it has a clock, a radio, and a sleep function, it doesn't have an alarm function to wake you to music. Seems silly not to include an alarm in a unit like this. I don't know what Logictech was thinking. I haven't had any of the failures other people have reported here. It seems to be working fine after using every day for about 1 month.

Logitech Pure-Fi Anywhere 2 Compact Docking Speakers for iPod and iPhone (White) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just picked these speakers up for my iphone 3G and they work great. The sound is very clear and plenty loud! I listened to them next to the Altec Lansing T612 and the BOSE SDII; these held their own. You will not get the amount of base that the larger units put out but the vocal quality is very good. I needed something that i could listen to music in my bedroom when i fall asleep and this does the trick. I find myself taking them everywhere, the office, outside to wash the cars, and the porch when we grille out. Great sound, good price, and super portable. If you are debating buying these for the others I mentioned, this is a safe bet and will do just fine for most people. I have a complete home stereo system downstairs that contains nothing but highend speakers and I still like to listen to the logitech unit

JBL On Time 400IHD High-Performance Speaker Dock with HD Digital Radio for iPod (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Like others, I was so excited to receive the speaker system until I plugged it in. I read the reviews and the description on Amazon. It specifies that it is compatible with the ipod touch 2nd g...well, it's not. It does not charge the ipod touch 2nd g and has a hard time trying to play the music from it...it doesn't always register the info and the remote doesn't operate the functions from the ipod. I really don't think it was made for the ipod touch 2nd generation...so be careful. The adapters only specify the ipod touch...I'm assuming only works with the 1st generation.
I was extremely disappointed since that was one of the main reasons I made the purchase last week from the goldbox offer of the day. The remote is worthless...it works when it wants to and sometimes plays other functions not commanded. It doesn't seem to be a battery issue.
I live in the center of a major city and have access to HD radio channels (20 stations) but this player had so much trouble locating the stations and occasionally skipped to other channels when it incurred reception problems without my command. I had both antennas (am/fm) connected into the system so it should have worked. I love the fact that it has so many options but they need to rethink about its functionality...necessary changes. There is no mute button on the remote or interface...bummer. The blue backlight doesn't have an off feature and the font is less than attractive. The manufacture needs to seriously work on improving their system...yikes!
The speakers were the only substantial thing to the system. It has excellent sound quality when you can get the radio to hold a channel...very, very disappointing.

Jensen Jims-120-W Docking Digital Music System For Ipod Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this docking station with the understanding (as indicated in the description) that it would recharge an iPod Nano. But it won't recharge any new iPods (meaning anything produced within the past 12 or 14 months). The manual clearly states that it will charge iPod Nanos if the software is up to date, but this is not true. I telephoned the company that distributes it ([...]) and was told that there was a misprint in their manual and that there was nothing I could do about it. Amazon would not take it back because they do not themselves sell the product, and Spectra would not because 30 days had elapsed since I bought it (because it was a Christmas present for someone else and we did not realize its failings until January). If you have an old iPod that you have not upgraded, buy this, but otherwise do not.

iLive IHT3817DT Studio Series Speaker Dock with 2.1 Channel Sound System and Remote Control for iPod (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My intent in implementing iLive IHT3817DT-IB 2.1 Soundbar was to supplant the built in speakers of my plasma TV as the TV speaker's sound was thin at best. The iLive Soundbar was integrated into a setup where the broadcast TV tuner of the plasma TV would drive the audio to the Soundbar. I also integrated iLive Soundbar where cable TV was derived from a Verizon set-top box via FiOS service. The Verizon set-top box drives the audio to the iLive Soundbar. I had intended to use one of the remotes to control all three devices so that programming could be done on one remote control.
The integration revealed three weaknesses in design of the iLive Soundbar:
1. The RCA input connections are facing downward on the Soundbar in a position that requires 90 degree angle adapters to be used in order to properly hide the wiring behind the Soundbar when it is mounted to a wall. This increases the total implemented cost.
2. The iLive remote control does not have an infrared code available to program other remote control devices that are capable of controlling multiple devices. In essence, your stuck using the iLive remote along with other remote controls to accommodate multiple devices.
3. The iLive IHT3817DT-IB 2.1 Soundbar does not have an adapter fitting for third generation iPOD devices. Third generation iPOD devices can be used without the adapter fitting, but the connection is fragile and is prone to damage if the iPOD is bumped while inserted on the mating connector.
On the positive side, the iLive IHT3817DT-IB 2.1 Soundbar strengths are good quality sound, sleek look and simple mounting scheme.
I was able to work around the remote control problems by using a Harmony 880 universal remote control. These are costly but allow programming without the need for infrared code.

Jump to the next generation of iPod speaker sound with the iLive IHT3817DT 2.1-channel system, which not only offers a topnotch audio performance, but also a host of connectivity options for other audio and video devices. The unit starts with a built-in iPod docking station, which works with the iPod 3G, iPod 4G (click wheel), iPod photo 4G, iPod video 5G and 5.5G, iPod mini, iPod shuffle, and iPod nano 1G and 2G. Thanks to the docking station, you can play, charge, and sync your iPod all at once, no extra cords required. The sound, meanwhile, is guaranteed to impress thanks to the pair of full-range stereo speakers and dual subwoofers, which provide a far broader and more robust audio range than most systems in the iPod category. Add in True 3D and SRS TruBass audio enhancements and you have a great system for watching movies in addition to listening to music. The speakers are even magnetically shielded, so they won't interfere with the picture when placed near a TV.
Other than the wide-ranging speaker system, the IHT3817DT's most distinguishing feature is its variety of inputs and outputs. The unit includes four A/V inputs--two RCA and two S-video--along with a traditional L/R audio input and a 3.5 mm auxiliary input. As a result, you can hook up a host of audio and video devices to the speaker system, including a portable MP3 player, full-size CD player, DVD player, satellite receiver, camcorder, and more. At the same time, the system offers composite and S-video output jacks, so you can connect your iPod video or photo to a TV and view your pictures and videos on the big screen. Unlike most iPod speaker setups, the IHT3817DT can actually function as a comprehensive entertainment system, with cables running to most of your audio and video devices.
Other details include a digital AM/FM stereo with station presets for easy channel surfing; a backlit LCD display with a clock, alarm, and sleep timer; several preset equalizer settings; a headphone jack for private listening; a motorized iPod docking drawer; a full-feature remote control; and a mini-USB jack for PC communication (includes USB cable). The IHT3817DT, which is wall-mountable (includes hardware), measures 34.2 by 9.8 by 7 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a 90-day warranty.

DreamGear i.Sound Audio Vault (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Practically speaking, this iPod accessory is an interesting and simple design. The speakers and the iPod sit in a padded case that provides a low profile. Its lightweight and is the size of a small paperback book. I imagine if you need to share some tunes with co-workers it will work fine but will not rock the house like more complex, heavy and expensive portable speakers.
Yeah it sounds like a 80's mini-boombox. But it produces strong sound for a long time which is great since it uses its own AA batteries. It sounds good when sitting in my Schwinn cruiser as I roll down the beach boardwalk to my iTunes Library! I wish that it connected to the dock connector port rather than the headphone port, but that may be because you control the volume with the iPod which only controls volume via the headphone jack. So press play, adjust volume on the iPod and then zip it closed. The price was right, shipping was fast and the item is as advertised!

JBL On Time 200ID High-Performance Speaker Dock with AM/FM Radio for iPod (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The On Time 200ID has very clear, powerful sound. Very good FM radio reception with fully extended pigtail antenna. It has tons of features:
1. You can fully customize your alarm settings (wk day, wkend, spec day) and the buzzer has an ascending volume feature that gently wakes you up (same as in radio/i-pod settings)
2. Because it is digital, you can see the station info (e.g. current song, artist, call letters) and it simultaneously show the current time in bigger font than the radio station
3. fuly illuminated controls that I don't have a hard time finding them. the brightness is adjustable but some people may have some difficulty with it's lowest settings.
4. Although it doesn't have any bass or treble controls, it responds well when I adjust the EQ setting from my I-pod, AND the remote is a FULL FUNCTION remote (e.g. has menu and enter buttons) other Ipod radio remotes don't fully control the Ipod ( I have a 4G nano)
This is an excellent bedroom clock/radio/I-pod speaker system If you don't mind some brightness that looked like a night light beside your bed
