We like:

Appealing designs; excellent build quality; powerful subwoofer; conveniently sized desktop speakers

We don't like:

Costly; Micropod SE speakers not outstanding on their own; no auxiliary input on iPod dock

You might also need:

An iPod; detached house or deaf neighbours

The stand-out product in the Minibass subwoofer, which could always be used as an add-on for existing equipment. You'll get a fantastic sound from your iPod through this kit, but alternatives should definitely be considered if you're on a budget
