Advantages: Smart and tidy with excellent sound quality Disadvantages: A little heavy
We needed a new docking station and immediately we thought 'Bose', knowing that this was, in our opinion the best quality.
Our Ipod was one of the cheaper ones but it makes no difference to the output of sound when in this docking station. It is Fantastic!
The acoustics are great, base amazing and as the station is a little heavier, it is safe to place anywhere even with a toddler knocking the table every five minutes!
It has a sleek design that looks perfect in the modern home.
The sound is amazing! it has an easy to use compact remote control, which fits perfectly in your pocket. So while you are out having a BBQ in the garden and want to turn the sound UP or Down, it is simple and easy to do.
You can also adjust the volume on the station with ease.
Even at a high level, the sound comes out perfect...not distorted at all ...
Advantages: Sturdy unlike some of the small speaker systems Disadvantages: none
I purchased the Bose SoundDock a few years ago to take my Ipod classic, it does however take all types of ipod. I think the quality of the sound is excellent & the speaker is so easy to use. After I had purchased the speaker system they brought out a battery one, this would have been even more value for money in my opinion as it would be easier to transport to the garden etc. The only buttons on the system are the volume + & - , I think this is adequate as the treble/bass etc can be controlled via the ipod itself. I don't very often use the remote but this is small & compact. I have had many great parties using this speaker & totally recommend it. In future I will always buy Bose. ...
Advantages: Incredible sound from such a small unit, good build quality Disadvantages: Price
I bought this unit in November this year. There are two models, the original sound dock which I think is about £199 and the second generation one (the one I bought) which was £279 from John Lewis. The second generation one is basically the same as the first except:
a) it has a rechargeable battery
b) it has a swing out dock
c) it has an auxiliary (3.5mm) jack input
If you just want a basic model, then go for the first gen one. I got the second gen one because I thought the battery was a useful addition as is the auxiliary 3.5mm input - I have mine connected to an apple airport express that streams itunes from my laptop to my bedroom although I have used it in a friends house with my ipod too.
The sound quality is good for its size which is about the same as a hardback book and it weighs in at about 1 kilo. You can take ...
