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

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!

iHome iHM9 Portable Stereo System for iPod, iPhone, and MP3 Players (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this tonight and cannot believe the sound clarity that this lil' thing has. I am very pleased with the sound however cannot give this a 5-star rating because the cord has a strange setup. Instead of being hidden the cord must wrap around the side to plug into the ipod. I have a 3rd gen nano (lil' square one) and the jack is on the bottom making it sit off-center. Also props the ipod a little off the back plate. If this didn't sound as good as it does I would take it back. For this price its definitely a keeper!

A compact and portable speaker system for your iPod or MP3 player, iHome's iHM9 keeps it simple. Share your sounds anywhere with this contemporary, space-saving design.

Works with Most MP3 Players This speaker system connects to your MP3 player, iPod, or other device using a standard 3.5-mm connector. You could even use it to amplify laptops or other devices. Just plug the attached audio patch cord located on the back of the unit into the headphone or line-out jack on your player, and you're set.

Most MP3 players and iPods will be small enough to lean right against the face of the device while in use.

Ultra-Portable The iHM9 defines portable, featuring a spot to wrap your cable in back and a protective carrying case. Throw it in your bag next time you head to the beach, camp, or go anywhere else you might want some musical accompaniment.

Battery Operation This speaker system operates on four AA batteries (not included) for go-anywhere sound. Use alkaline batteries for long playback time, or rechargeables for a greener option.

Note that no AC power source is included--batteries only.

EXB Bass The iHM9 features an EXB circuit for expanded bass, to deliver richer sound than you might expect from a speaker system this size.
