An attractive, shrine-like all-in-one iPod docking speaker system that roughly rivals Altec’s class-leading iM7 on sound quality and volume, with a RF remote control capable of 35-foot uninterrupted broadcasting and near-distance iPod menu navig...
No user customization of bass or treble levels, and otherwise roughly equivalent to the less expensive, equally attractive iM7 on audio performance. Though similar to company’s earlier On Time in looks and still impressive in that regard, not qu...
