| Review summary | While not the best-sounding system we've ever heard, its sheer usefulness as a home audio product is terrific, and we don't dislike the look of it, either Read full review |
A terrific iPod speaker system, and one of our new favourites for the bedroom. It's got a great design and build, excellent sound quality and it's intuitive and easy to use. What more could you want from a system like this? Read full review |
A superb iPod sound system with generally terrific sound quality. Despite issues with songs that feature extremely heavy bass, it's almost certainly one of the finest iPod setups you'll find on the market today Read full review |
The desktop speakers for the audio purist, but an expensive option. The inability to retain audio quality at very high volumes may anger anyone looking to invest in a powerful all-rounder, but audiophiles, home recordists and purists after sonic accuracy will consider this a good investment Read full review |
