Crosley CR3011A-MA Ideco Universal Ipod Dock Mahogany - Crosley CR3011AMA Review

Average Reviews:

There is nothing redeeming about this iPod dock. No bass, no treble, just midrange. It can't even get very loud. It crackles. It pops. It hisses. If it were in the "free" pile at a garage sale I still wouldn't want it. The sound of the iDeco is so terrible that I'm writing this review on amazon.com with the hope that nobody ever makes the same mistake I made. Seriously, don't buy it -- it's terrible.

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

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

Philips DC910/37 Shelf Bar 30-Watt Audio System with iPod Dock (Black) Review

Philips DC910/37 Shelf Bar 30-Watt Audio System with iPod Dock (Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The quality of the audio is considerably below higher end iPod Docks, but it's passable for a dorm room kind of setting. The sound is very compressed and does a decent job in the vocal frequencies and not a heck of a whole lot else. That said, the sound is better than you get with your typical Sony/iHome alarm clock iPod docks and it isn't a whole lot bigger. It also can be louder than those docks.
The ability to load in a SD card or Flash card for music is a nice feature that makes this audio system quite versatile. The remote is easy to use and fairly intuitive. Yes, you can rotate your iPod and watch TV shows and movies, but honestly, who wants to watch TV on such a tiny screen unless you're on a plane (in which case, you'd be using earphones).
The build on this unit is not particularly impressive and I'm guessing that it won't last more than three years. Then again, I won't have my iPod touch at that time either and will have moved onto something new.
If you can get this thing for less than 100 bucks, it's worth it. More than that, and you probably can do better with another dock.

TruTech Alarm Clock Speaker Station for iPod Review

TruTech Alarm Clock Speaker Station for iPod
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've had my alarm clock for a couple of years now (3 in December). It was also a Christmas present. Now, let me say first that the other reviewer is correct. I do wish I could dim the brightness of the clock display, but simply turning it towards the wall lessens the glare.
For such a small player, it's a little giant. I've never had any issues with the sound quality or the radio sound. It works just fine.
If you're looking for a great alarm clock that will play and charge your iPod, then this is a great purchase. I would gladly recommend this product to another person who was looking to get a decent radio clock without busting their bank account.

iLive IB209P Portable Music System with AM/FM Radio, iPod Docking and Recharging- Pink Review

iLive IB209P Portable Music System with AM/FM Radio, iPod Docking and Recharging- Pink
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this pink Ipod speaker system at Sears on clearance for $24.99.
The black system was $34.99. The pink is actually a pretty shade of dark pink (not as depicted here) and the design of this Ipod docking system is not too bad - even if it looks a little cheap - sort of like an updated am/fm radio from the 70's.
There are rotary dials for the volume and radio channels on the left and right side of the unit. The other push buttons are all located on the center part of the unit.
The sound is fair. You can choose to add extra bass or not. The volume is adequate for a small room - even a little too loud at full volume. The unit is portable and has a handle. It comes with a cord, so you don't need to use batteries for daily use.
I bought two of these and so far we've tested it with both an Iphone 3Gs and an Ipod Touch 32GB. There is some hissing as another reviewer noted, but it seemed to go away. I tried moving the radio dial and it seemed to help coincidentally. I will update this once I've tested it out more.
The sound is not spectacular, but if you can find this on sale for $25 or less, then it's a good deal.

Denon ASD-3W Wifi Network iPod Dock (Black) Review

Denon ASD-3W Wifi Network iPod Dock (Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
For the 1st couple of days I was feeling so-so on this product. The user interface is slow and clunky. So it took some getting used to. I don't know how many times I entered the wep key and ssid for wireless access. But after some time I have successfully used all the features and I'm quite happy with it.
I have a new ipod classic and this is my 1st experience with video on ipods. On the tiny screen, videos look quite good and (at least I) can watch a reasonable amount of them that way. I was hoping for a better video experience when using the ASD-3W. The video quality is just ok on my HD panasonic tv. Something just slightly below ordinary non-HD tv broadcasts. And some are better than others depending on the quality of the equipment used to shoot the video as well as any conversion software. So if you were looking to rip your DVD library to your ipod and enjoy those movies like you did from a DVD player, you will be disappointed. But for TV series and video podcasts, it's not too bad.
The best thing though is along with all the music/video on the ipod, you have access to internet radio and also pics and music you have stored on your pc through win media player. This really makes the deal on this device. There is just tons of great FREE music and podcasts out there and this product allows you access to all that. The higher res channels/stations sound quite good too. It's also cool to view your digital pics stored on the PC while listening to your favorite internet radio station.
I wish the video quality was better, but I think the start-of-the-art isn't quite there yet, but reasonably acceptable for now. I'm sure in several years we will have 1080p coming out of the ipods and devices like this will be the main AV entertainment device. I'm saving up for the next generation or the one after that. But I'm happy and pleased with this new addition to my AV system.

Denon Networking Client Dock with WiFi for iPod Review

Denon Networking Client Dock with WiFi for iPod
Average Reviews:

Though expensive it is worth every penny! Hook-up was fairly easy and connecting it to my wifi was simple. Having a menu of all my music on screen and being able to control it by remote control is so cool! Streaming internet radio is simple as it is built in to the menu system. Click the "Browse/Remote" button on the remote and you can listen to Pandora or Slacker radio through your stereo. Start up Microsoft Media Player on a networked computer and it automatically detects the Denon dock and allows you to setup a media server with an on screen menu. It is well built and sleek looking. I love this device almost as much as my iPod Touch.

Philips DC912/37 Shelf Bar 100-Watt Audio System with Wireless Subwoofer for iPod (Black/Silver) Review

Philips DC912/37 Shelf Bar 100-Watt Audio System with Wireless Subwoofer for iPod (Black/Silver)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Philips DC912 is a great looking system, and it performs well. I've been wanting a book shelf system for the master bedroom of my house, that complemented the environment, and this little guy does the job. It took about two weeks for the unit to arrive, and I was very excited to receive it, so I started googling it. What I found kinda scared me, as there is one REAL review of this product from a guy on cnet, and this guy just trashed the unit. I started to feel, I had made a bad choice.
After receiving the unit, I wasn't disappointed. The unit looks great, and I would say the sound quality is on the upper-mid level of consumer products. It does everything it's suppose to do.
This unit works well in my bedroom; however, there's no way I'd try to use it for a large party. The sound fills my modest room well, but it's not going to be the right unit to replace your home theater system.
There are a few things I wish philips would have incorporated into the DC912. For example, the clock is only visible when the unit is on standby, I wish it was displayed all the time. The alarm settings are very limited - one time for everyday. [you maybe able to use the iPods built in alarm clock to fix this] Mute is instant off, instant on - a fading up and down would be nicen. More control of the EQ, the presets are nice, and will work for most, but I wish I had the ability to adjust them to my liking.
I would recommend this unit to anyone who's looking for a nice sound system, for a bedroom, foyer, or office.
Over all, i think the price is fair.

Enjoy a cool, crisp sound while adding to your bedroom's laid-back feel withthe SpeckTone Retro iPod speaker system from Speck Products. The system's primaryappeal stems from its sleek and stylish mod design, which consists of a high-glosslacquered black wood cabinet, a backlit "green glow" volume knob, and a housing thatlooks straight out of a '50s hipster catalog. But there's far more to the Retro system thanlooks, as it also includes a built-in iPod docking station that accepts virtually all"dockable" iPods, including the iPod 4G, iPod video, iPod photo, iPod mini, and iPodnano. As a result, you can charge and play your iPod at the same time. The system'sauxiliary input, meanwhile, works with older iPods and other digital media players,including personal CD players, MP3 players, and any other device with a 3.5 mmheadphone jack.
Audio-wise, the Retro boasts analog circuitry, a pair of 3-inch drivers, and a 4-inchbottom subwoofer that combine to deliver a rich, dynamic sound with uncompromisingquality. Other details include the ability to accommodate many iPod protective cases, atotal power output of 28 watts, and a set of angled legs with soft rubber strips toprevent slipping. An ideal tabletop system for the bedroom, office, or kitchen, theSpeckTone Retro measures 14 by 5 by 6.5 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a 90- day warranty.
What's in the Box SpeckTone Retro speaker system, AC adapter, two matching skins (for iPod video andnano), black foam spacer, warranty card, user's manual.

Average Reviews:

The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is because the alarm won't work unless the unit is OFF (which also kills the lighted display). However, I figured out a work-around: set the "timer OFF" BEFORE the "timer ON" time to ensure that the unit will be off after you listen to whatever you listen to when you go to sleep. Yes, there's a TIMER function, but then you can't see the time (at night in the dark) if the unit is OFF!

Amazing what great sound you can get from such a small box. The reclining feature is a nice touch and will keep your iPod from getting knocked off. The radio is good for a change and seems to pick up all local AM/FM channels in the area. Hope it lasts as well as it looks.

Logic3 i-Station TimeCube for iPhone and iPod (White) Review

Logic3 i-Station TimeCube for iPhone and iPod (White)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this item for a Xmas present for a small child who wanted music to go to sleep too. It's a great product - well it would be if we could use it. The power supply it comes with is a unique/custom design that allows you to interchange between various differing country AC outlet pin configurations - in the box comes one for EU and the UK but NONE for the US. The AC/DC Unit requires you to attach one of the included pin connectors in order to be used - i.e. it's not like it had a US 2 pin as standard.
I thought perhaps they had forgotten to put a US connector in the box - then reading the manual - the manual only shows EU/UK connectors.
Why is Amazon selling a product that can't be used out of the box?
Thank goodness I checked this product or it would have been tears on Christmas morning. I'm going to have to use the UK attachment and go to Radio Shack and spend another $10 on a UK/US adapter - which means, due to the larger size of the UK/EU plugs, we will have to sacrifice another electrical socket or spend another $7 for a power strip. This is working out to be a very expensive gift for what it does - especially seeing as this same unit is on sale on Amazon UK site for 35% cheaper!
Still - at least it will work if I ever move back to the UK!
Totally unacceptable.

Skullcandy S7PIBN-CZ Pipe Speaker Dock for iPod and iPhone (Chrome) Review

Skullcandy S7PIBN-CZ Pipe Speaker Dock for iPod and iPhone (Chrome)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
One of the best sounding and looking portable speakers with an iPod dock.
1. Style
- Bought these in Chrome... but all of them are VERY sleek and VERY stylish. The cylindrical tube shape does need a bit of getting used to, and the small size is a major plus for those on the go. The nifty remote control really tops it all off- which I might add: though stated on the manual that the remote is only effective up to about 10ft, I have successfully gotten them to work at about 30-35ft away.... and now the best part...
... 2. Sound!
These are one of the BEST sounding portable speakers availible, up there with the LG MSP-100 folding speakers, which is my personal favorite. Both speaker sets are VERY loud while retaining clarity, but the Skullcandy Pipes do have a bit more on the low end/bass tones.
Running either on the AC wall adapter or AAA battery option, these babies pump out a whopping 5.6 Watts max! (Pretty Good considering their size, the LG MSP-100's only pumped out 4 Watts.)
These DO tend to distort at high volumes, but it's mainly only the low's that cause it. The Mids and Highs are still somewhat clear, but the distortion of the Lows really just ruins the music at those volumes.
AUDIOPHILE REVIEW:
Now, these do have weak lows and decent mids and decent highs.
*****These tested to have a freq. range of: 50hz-20khz.*****
The sound is slightly better when plugged into the wall.
As expected, the sound is only decent while on battery power.
3. Overall Opinion
These are GREAT speakers for those wanting to replace that boombox/radio sitting on their desk at home or work, and for those who want to share their music while on the go- at a picnic, or just hanging out at a party on the beach! These speakers do pack quite a surprising punch despite thier decievingly small size. The $69.99 price tag Target and some other retailers give these DOES seem a bit high, but the lower prices seen on eBay and Amazon do make a BIT more sense though sometimes a bit too low. $45-$55 seems a bit more appropriate.
BOTTOM LINE: BUY THEM! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

C. Crane Company CAK Accessory Kit for the CC Witness Digital MP3 Recorder/Player Review

C. Crane Company CAK Accessory Kit for the CC Witness Digital MP3 Recorder/Player
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This accesory kit is a nice addition to the Witness. The largest part of the kit is the large adaptor on the power cord. This can be plugged directly into the bottom of the Witness or plugged into the charger base then the Witness can be easily inserted into the base for charging. The large adaptor is not very mobile to add to your suitcase but is its greatest advantage is that it has very little AC hum, even when charging while recording. The silicon sleeve is great protection to the Witness and because the keypad is nearly flat, hunting for the keys while listening in the dark is now easier because of the small hole over the center play/pause key. The only suggestion I would make to the kit would be to enlarge the charger base so that it would accept the Witness while installed in the silicon sleeve. Currently this tight fitting sleeve has to be removed if you want to charge the unit in the base, which is not worth the hastle. I already knew of this disadvantage before ordering so I was not disappointed when using it. It would just make sense if the base would be wider to allow charging in the base while the Witness was in the silicon sleeve. I would highly recommend this kit with the great hum free adaptor alone.
